This year's reunion was a smashing success. Shipmates and family
members from all across the country gathered in Falls Church, Virginia, to
celebrate and reminisce our experiences aboard the Canberra.
Sometimes, just getting to the site of the reunion can offer opportunities to
visit with long lost pals. As you can see, the Webmaster met with an old
shipmate, on the road to Falls Church.
