John Dolinski, insisting on performing numerous responsibilities is
obviously the Units backbone.
Ed Risser and color
party have earned laudable reputation for dress and precision.
Both much appreciated.
Jim Lang is still hopping around the world
with various parachuting excursions,
earning more wings
and sharing his military display, mostly on the Korean war
Missing from photo
James Balmforth and Bill Turner.

Corrections
will be appreciated
During previous years Unit 50 has
donated approximately $100,000.00 to youth and other needy organizations as well as plaques and benches,
throughout central and southern Okanagan valley, funding derived from
B.C. gaming commission, initiated and operated by Lew Mowry now
discontinued. Well done Lew and other members who contributed.
