THE 2016 SAN ANTONIO REUNION
The 2016 USS Horne Reunion was a great success. Attendees visited nearby Fredericksburg, home to Chester Nimitz and the
Pacific War Museum. Linda and Larry Goolsby did a wonderful job of organizing everything. There was plenty of food and lots
of drinks. On banquet night, we received a detailed Gulf War briefing from Horne's Desert Storm Skipper, Captain Tom Barnett. The skipper
took us behind the scenes of Gulf War Operations which included dodging silkworm missiles in a combat zone and spending 11 days in an area
infested with mines. After the banquet we heard about the sad story of our shipmate, Bill Dies.  We had a raffle and Sergio & Linda Marquez received
the first ever Cracker Jack Award commemorating Sergio's 50 years of dedication to USS Horne. Gail Annett was outstanding as the reunion
photographer. She took nearly 500 photos and took the time to label each and every one with names and other details. Thank you, Gail.
