January 31, 2023


This past weekend we celebrated ALERT’s 29th anniversary with our annual reunion. It was a great weekend full of fun, with lots of opportunities to reconnect with old friends, hear encouraging messages, and get beat up playing gator ball. Thanks again to Maj. Keon Pendergast (Unit 1) and Sgt. Isac Dymesich (Unit 19) for sharing message with the attendees. You can view the recordings of their messages here and here. You can also view the photos from the album on our Flickr account here. We will keep uploading pictures from the weekend as we get them edited.

We are also excited to announce the dates for next year’s reunion where we will be celebrating 30 years of forging men. The 2024 reunion will take place February 8-11, 2024. Mark your calendars now so you can be sure to make it to the party. We will be announcing more details on the expanded schedule of events throughout the year as we look to celebrate 30 years. Hope to see you all there!
