Next, came the catered food was fabulous and we all throughly enjoyed the delcious BBQ and dessert. There was even a custom-made cake celebrating the event. See the fun

Our Model "A's" were front and center as a tribute to the times. There was a lot of interest in Art Callan's '29 Tudor, Gene Tallone's '30 Fordor (Taxi), Dick Krug's '31 Deluxe Coup and Aldie Johnson's '31 Mail Truck. The older Vets enjoyed and appreciated our participation with questions and pictures. There also was fanfare by notable speakers, in particular, recognition of ALL the volunteers that help the V.A.Hospital provide services to returning Vets from all conflicts.

We also enjoyed a photo opp with Miss Massachusetts, Alicia Zitka. She is charming as our representative to Miss America. Alicia is from West Springfield. Needless to say, we were proud to be there supporting this event.

Finally pulled out around 9:00 PM after 3 hours of tire-kicking and socializing. See the fun

After a long period of in-hospital and rehabilitation, Gene Bunce has finally made it back home and is recovering with the help of "his" Joyce and the rest of the Bunce clan.

ON THIS DAY: November 26, 1927
FORD MODEL A AUTOMOBILE ANNOUNCED
The Ford Motor Company of Detroit, Michigan announced the introduction of the Model A, the first new Ford automobile to enter the market since the Ford Model T was first introduced in 1908. The hugely successful Ford Model T

revolutionized the automobile industry, and over 15,000,000 million units of the "Tin Lizzie" were sold in its 19 years of automotive production and assembly. By 1927, the popularity of the outdated Model T was rapidly waning. Improved, but basically unchanged for its two-decade reign, it was losing ground to the more stylish and powerful motor cars offered by Ford Motor Company's competitors.

In May of 1927, Ford automobile production plants across the country closed, as the company began an intensive development of the more refined and modern Model A automobile. The vastly improved Ford Model A had elegant Lincoln automobile-like styling on a smaller scale, and used a capable 200.5-cubic-inch four-cylinder engine that produced 40 horsepower (hp). With prices starting at $460, nearly 5,000,000 Ford Model A automobiles, in several body styles and a variety of colors, rolled onto America's highways over a four-year period until production ended in early 1932.
