Selling_Tickets.JPG"You want HOW many???Terry Savely mans the Registration Table offering raffle tickets for sale. The 50/50 drawing split this year was $1,100, a nice, tidy sum to the winner. And, the winner was Ms Linda Curtis, guest of 2/9th Redleg Mike Kurtgis. She donated the winnings back to the 35th in memory of Lt Roger Fulkerson, an FO from the 2/9th serving with the 35th in the field. Roger was the best friend of Mike Kurtgis. Fulkerson was KIA in a firefight.
