In accordance with the Constitution and By-Laws of the Class, the Corporation’s charter, and the call by the President in a Classwide e-mail message sent 19 April 2006, the Annual Meeting was convened and presided over by Class President Walter Henderson during the Class Picnic on Saturday, 6 May 2006 at the Lindholms' farm near Nokesville, VA. (Company Guidon Bearers had been requested to inform companymates living outside the Greater Washington Area who were not on e-mail – Section Marchers were responsible for informing those in the GWA.)

· Without objection, the reading of the Minutes of the 2005 Annual Meeting was waived.

· The Treasurer being absent, the Secretary presented the Treasurer's Report reflecting a balance of $22,580.02 in the Class Administrative Fund and, without question, it was accepted by acclamation.

· Nominating Committee Chairman Max W. Noah presented the slate of nominees for class office previously announced in the Classwide message (2006-07 changes from 2005-06 are underlined):

President - Albert N. Tardiff
Vice President - Francis A. Nerone
Secretary - Richard A. Miller
Treasurer - Keith L. Born
Historian/Scribe - Robert C. Breckenridge
General Counsel - Walter Henderson
(2006 changes in office holders underlined)

· The presiding officer called for nominations from the floor (lawn); there being none, the nominated slate was approved by acclamation and became effective upon adjournment.

· Chairman Albert N. Tardiff announced that the Reunion Committee had made the decision to return to the Woodcliff Lake Hilton for our 55th Reunion. He related that the main factors recommending it rather than a number of other candidates were cost, proximity, our familiarity with it and its location, and its ability to accommodate everyone at one location. The hotel has been renovated since we were there in 2003 and desired improvements in handicap accommodation have been made.

There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned.

Richard A. Miller
Secretary
