Reed arrived on December 16 from his post in
Bamburg, Germany. The uniform got him lots of attention and a seat in
first class on one of the shorter legs of his flight.

At Firemann's we enjoyed a lengthy chat with Gunnar and Feli in Oslo, Norway.
A few days later, Firemann's nephew, Lyndon Olson, and wife Janet, visited. Here, they watch a video Reed made while stationed in Ar Ramadi, Iraq.

We made our own labels for our home-made wine. Everyone had a part in cleaning bottles, siphoning wine, and corking the product, a Cabernet Sauvignon made from a wine kit.
