Greetings from the USS Hissem DE/DER-400 Association.

The next Hissem reunion will be held in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina on October 4, 5 and 6, 2009.  Checkout will be October 7, 2009.  The Sand Dunes Resort Hotel in Myrtle Beach will be the hosting facility for the reunion.  The room rate is $100.18 per night which includes 19.56% tax and a $2.14 daily room resort service charge.  Please make your reservations by calling the Sand Dunes Central Reservations at 1-800-599-9872 and ask for the USS Hissem group block.  All reservations must be guaranteed by one night’s deposit.  The hotel will hold the room block until September 3, 2009.  For information about the hotel, please visit their website at http://www.sandsresorts.com/resorts/sanddunes/ 
 

The hospitality suite will be located in the Bora Bora Room. The room will be available starting at noon on Sunday, October 4.  There is a buffet dinner planned for Tuesday night, October 6.  The dinner will be held in the Bali Ballroom at the hotel.  A raffle will be held at the dinner for at least one free room for the three-night stay. 
 

Please contact anyone you know who served aboard the Hissem and let them know about Myrtle Beach.  If there is anything I can do to help, please let me know.  The more people we contact, the more people we will see in South Carolina.

The Retired Enlisted Association (TREA) is providing the Military Reunion Listings as a FREE service to the veteran community. I search the internet looking for reunions and then send requests for the information to the listed POC. I sent 4,788 reunion organizations e-mails, in calendar years 2006 and 07, requesting information on their reunions, 61.5 % responded with information. We have 2,685 – 2006, and 07 listings in the archives. With the last listing update, we have 860 reunion listings for calendar years 2008, 2009, 2010, and 2011.

Please take a look at our website, www.trea.org, scroll down the left side and click on Reunions/Buddies, and this will bring up the reunion page. As reunions are completed, they are transferred to the Completed Listing at the end of the month. There, they will remain as a reference point for someone looking for a unit contact. My intention is that each calendar year reunions will be individually listed.
