Dear Friends:
 

I am pleased to extend my warmest greetings to all of you attending the 508th Parachute Infantry Regiment Reunion. I am delighted to welcome our out-of-town visitors. I hope you have the opportunity to sample some of the many diverse offerings of our North Star State.

This is a momentous occasion to honor all of you who courageously served our United States. Your bravery, courage and strength are the very traits that founded our great nation. You are the leaders who risked your lives so that others might live. There is no greater leader.

My very best wishes for a memorable reunion. Minnesota is very honored to host the 508th.

/s/ Rudy Perpich
Governor
