It is time again for a Reunion with the 8th Cavalry Regiment Association in Columbus, Georgia.

The 8th Cavalry will have a Reunion from May 1st to May 5th, 2024  at the Doubletree Motel in Columbus, Ga.

The phone number for Reservations is {706 327 6868 }  The address is 5351 Sidney Simons Blvd. 31909.

The name is under 8th Cavalry Regiment Association.  Check-in is two days before and two days after for the group rate.

The motel does have a restaurant in the motel and we do have a free breakfast each morning.

The motel has been renovated so no pets are allowed. We will have a hospitality room on the 2nd floor. The motel has handicapped rooms.

Wednesday is travel day and pick up your packet and register on the 2nd floor next to the Hospital room.

Thursday is a travel day to Warm Springs to visit the Little White House, then have lunch at the Bullard House in Warm Springs.

Friday is a trip to Ft. More/ Benning. The first stop is to visit the Restoration building to see repairs made to the U.S. Army and other 

Military Vehicles from Other Countries. This is a new Building from the one last time. Bigger, Nicer, Air-condition. 

After this, we go to eat in a Military mess Hall for lunch. Then to the training facility where the soldiers train on Simulators.

They train on the M1 tanks, Drivers, Gunners, Loaders, and commanders. The Humvees, The Bradley's. & many more.

Saturday is a trip to the National Infantry Museum. You can Tour inside & outside. A lot to see on the site of the Museum.

Golf carts are available for tours outside. A lot of walking to do & see outside. At noon lunch & back to the Motel for much-needed rest.

Saturday night back to the Museum for the Banquet Meal, & Entrainement.& Speeches. A good Evening for all.

As your President, I look forward to seeing all the members & guests at the Reunion. This may be the last Reunion the 8th Cavalry has.

It is getting hard to find someone to host a Reunion in a different city now. Age is catching up with us now. Not as easy as it used to be to get around. The 8th Cavalry will continue to join the 1st Cavalry Division when they have there's. It is a lot less work that way also. 

I hope all members & guests show up for this could be the last one we have for the 8th Cavalry, but I hope not.

I wish all of you a safe trip here & back home. May all of you have a great time.

Tommy Harris

President 8th Cavalry Regiment
