After the USS Coral Sea Marines 1955 - 1957 was organized, we held our first Reunion in Williamsburg, Virginia at the Woodlands Motel which is part of the Williamsburg Historic Lodging complex. Later we were moved to another location due to the fact the whole Williamsburg area lost power due to hurricane Floyd. The Reunion was a great success and renewed friendships.
