FEBRUARY 2006 REPORT by Charles Brecheisen

Greeetings Altair Shipmates. Here is your monthly report for February 2006.

SHIPMATES: We have two new shipmates bringing the total on board to 401. The shipmates are:

John Cherny, Lexington, SC BM3, 1966-1968

James "Red" Foley, Biddeford, ME SN, 1959-1961

DUES: The dues have been changed to $10; and, thanks to all that have paid their dues. It's what keeps this organization running!

FINANCIAL: The beginning balance was $912.07 with income of $125.00 and expenses of $175.80 leaving a balance of $861.27. The major cost was $126.35 for the Altair web site, postage. I purchased a "Naval Aviation News" February 1965, that contained a nice article on the Altairs' helo replenishment with the
Sixth Fleet.

U.S. NAVAL MEMORIAL COMMEMORATIVE WALL: Pledges are coming in nicely and thanks to all for your dollar pledges. I will give a pledge report in the next Altair monthly update. If you are not familiar with the Commemorative Wall, please
