To the editor:
If possible, and if they have home computers, I
would be interested in hearing from old High School Buddies from
Lincoln. I grew up there and attended school, grades 1 through 12.
I left in 1959 to join the Marines and after five years serving in
the "Far East", I was discharged and became a Diplomat
in the Foreign Service (Federal Government). During my career of
27 years, all but one assignment was overseas, from Asia, to
Africa, to Eastern Europe, South America and the Middle East.
Having been abducted three times, a hostage in the 1979 Embassy in
Tehran and shot at and tracked in Bogota, Colombia I feel now that
I am retired and living in Southwest Texas, on the Mexican border
it, would be a good time to see if the following individuals are
still around and would like to contact me. They are, Jug Mallerage,
Laverne Turner, Jim Leslie, Jim Cave and any others that may
remember me from our old school days. My e-mail address is okihanna@hiline.net.

To the editor:
It's refreshing and
exciting to see a local news source that is ethical and honest!
You present articles of interest to your readers with no other
motivation than to provide us with information without a hidden
agenda utilizing misleading headlines and editorial commentary.
Thank you.
