"The project of writing a book that details the history of Hotel 2/7 in Vietnam is finished! Well, sort of.

The rough draft of the manuscript has been completed and the editing process is underway. If you have first-person accounts of your tour with Hotel it's not too late to submit your memories. Email your information or your name and phone number and I will call you.

Ideally, the book will be published in time for sale at the Phoenix reunion, but given the vagaries of editing and publishing, it is impossible to predict.

Most of you know I will not keep any profits from the sale of our story. This was never my intention. If there are profits it is my desire that we work as a group to determine how the money should be used.

To those of you who provided me with your memories, encouragement and thoughts, I am in your debt. Without you my recordation of our history could never of materialized.

Semper fidelis,
Steve Cone"
