USS Renshaw DD/DDE-499Reunion 2009
The reunion came off as planned. The G20 Summit and the associated protest groups were in town, but we were not affected, other than a couple changes to our tour bus sites on Wednesday. It was a great reunion and Pittsburgh was a good place to hold it. We'll have some additional comments, pictures, and info on the gathering shortly. If you missed it, you missed (another) good one.
