**
A majority of shipmates attending the 2011 USS Begor Reunion Cruise voted, at the Annual Crew Meeting, that a 2012 reunion be held in our Homeport, San Diego, and that this be the final national-in-scope Begor Reunion. The rationale for this decision is that the aging of our membership has led many shipmates to forego long-distance travel, resulting in the bare minimum attendance needed to obtain group-pricing for rooms and meals.
However, the Association will continue to encourage regional and local reunions of shipmates interested in organizing them, and we will promote such reunions in our Newsletter and on our Website, as long as we continue to publish those media.
