Easter greetings

from MARS men

Through the courtesy of the Base Amateur (MARS) Radio Station Base Marines can send Easter greetings home.  In most cases they'll be received in less than 24 hours.

According to GySgt. Chester ("Red") Boni, NCOIC of the station, Marines should contact him at the station.  "All I need to know is the address where the Marine would like his greeting sent and how he would like it signed." said Gunny Boni.

The program is offered also through the courtesy of Amateur Ham Radio operators throughout the country.

The station is located in Bldg 1545 behind the dental facilities.  Interested persons are encouraged to contact Gunny Boni there or by phone at Exts. 6545 or 6144.
