7th INFANTRY REGIMENTAL DINNER

The Dinner for the 7th Infantry Regiment Association will be held at the Columbus Airport Hotel on Friday evening. The cost will be $25 per person and you need to decide if you want the Chicken Cordon Bleu or the Roast Sirloin of Beef when you send your payment.

Since the 7th Infantry Regiment Association Reunion is being held in conjunction with Society of the 3rd Infantry Division, if you want to attend events from both reunions, you will need to make separate payments for both events. I will have both Reunion Registration Forms posted here shortly. We are still finalizing the details for the Memorial Service at the 199th RedCatcher's Memorial. Once these details are completed, I will post the Registration Forms. (From the 7th Inf. Regt Website http://www.cottonbalers.com/reunions/reunion.asp )
