The 55th Annual Reunion of the 818th Tank Destroyer Battalion will be held July 12th thru the 14th in Lincoln, Nebraska. Raymond and Lola Schildt will be hosting the reunion with the help of their daughters, Delta Kovar, Margaret Krieser, Lana Capek and Joan Pearson.

Although all the plans have not been finalized, the Comfort Suites in Lincoln, NE has been selected for the reunion.  You can start making your reservations now.  The hotel is located at 331 N Cotner Blvd, Lincoln, NE. (view map).  The direct number for the hotel is 402-325-8800.  This is the number you would use to call in reservations.  Room rate is $77.00 for a one or two-bed suite.  To receive this special rate, guests must identify themselves as part of the 818th Tank Destroyer Battalion Reunion when calling in their reservations.  This block of rooms will only be held until June 12 at this special rate so make your reservations by that time.  We have two handicap suites reserved, so if you need one of these, please indicate your desire for that.  We have the hospitality room reserved at the hotel also and we will have time for visiting.
