				How did the SBV organization originate, and evolve to this point?  If the answer is in the book, don't respond, I'll read it this week.
 
Just wondering how 250+ specifically billeted vets came together in such a short period of time.  
 
 
Any insight is welcome. _________________ Corpsman, 1969-1973 |

				It's not a short period of time.  It started in January and the relationships had been in place through 35 years of reunions etc. _________________
