2009 O.E Club USA Chapter, Gathering in Washington, DC.

In February, I received a note from the UK, from my school, asking if any alumni living in the States would like to attend the first gathering to be held in the US, in Washington, DC

Some came from British Columbia, Nova Scotia, Boston, faculty from the UK and my wife and I drove down from Milford, Pa. About 20 of us attended.

Not all were from my class, many were from earlier years, but it didn't seem to matter, it was fascinating to hear what we had all accomplished.

We tacked a few extra days on so that I, who had never really explored DC could get a glimpse of this city.

There were so many highlights. For me, a Brit who has lived in the US for 30 years, the tour of the Capital was amazing.

We were also so privileged to have had a guided personal tour of "The Written in Bone" exhibition by world renown forensic anthropologist, Douglas Owsley, and for those who are "CSI's", that was awesome.

Lastly, an evening, hosted by our stateside chapter president, at a Virginia farmhouse. Thank you all for making this possible.


Enjoy the movie!
