Comments: Hello Shilo Bratts Not sure if anyone will remember me, but I sure remember some of you folks. How about Scott Crang, Brad Peters, Harvey Eberly, Greg Gardner, Tom Babcock????? Well just to mention a few.Anyway feel free to contact me with this address. GOOD ON YA !
Comments: Speaking of reunions, here's your big chance to send me some of your BEST SHOTS from past reunions. We're in the process of re-doing the REUNION web pages and many of the photos that are presently on the site will be discarded because of poor quality. Any photos from our '83, '88, '93 and possibly '02 reunions will be photos needing to be scanned and emailed or just sent snail mail. An address is posted on the WHAT'S NEW page of Shilobrats. And if you're emailing photos, keep them in a large format (1600X1200 is nice). I would like to have them by the end of APRIL. Any mini-reunion photos are welcome too. Thanks!!

Comments: Good day everyone, WOW...what a site! I lived in Shilo from 1955-60. My Father was Sgt. Joe Villebrun with the RCHA. My mother's name is Mary. My Sister's name is Paulette, she would have attended grades 1-5 during our tour in Shilo. My brother Guy, was born in Shilo in '57! Myself, I attended kindergarten in 1959. Many memories, sometimes faint, of the base. But I will not take up all guestbook at this time. I was back in Shilo in the late 60's attending Cadet Summer Camp, thinking it was around the Q lines. Still remember the Jump Tower. Anyway, I went on later to a Career with the CAF, and retired in 1992. I hope to have some people who remembered my family, or have some ancedotes from that era to contact me. I would be tickled pink.

Comments: 17 weeks to the '07 "All Years Reunion" and the questions begin...where can I stay, what is the Gate procedure, am I free to explore or have tours been organized...and on...'07 Reunion Questions? & Answers! in Info Central has been set up for you to post your questions about the '07 Reunion, and for answers to be posted by '07 reunion committee members, and for experiences and seasoned advice from past reunion veterans.
Many of us will be attending, and considering attending a Shilo reunion for the first time. An InterActive! forum asking and answering questions and seeing input from seasoned reunion veterans will enhance the success of the reunion experience for everyone.
Every Reunion is a memorable experience.
Make this Reunion the one not to miss!

Comments: Happy Easter Everyone........ Lets talk about the Reunions.... " Reunions" as I have said before are a gathering of old friends. A chance to get together with the people from our past and maybe present and have a great time reminiscing with everyone. Shilo Brats are entitled to go to whichever reunion they would like to go to, which would mean you either sign up for the 2007 or the 2008 reunion. My personal opinion would be that you are going to go to the one that most of your old friends are going to and which ever one suits your time lines best. We welcome you at either reunion and it is entirely your choice. Go and sign up at the one you feel is your reunion and have a great time...... Take Care.....Karla
