As you may have heard that the Association is upgrading its web site, rhpba.com. We are now fully on our new site. It’s a slow process and we need your help. If you subscribe to our posts, you will receive an e-mail each time something is posted.
We also need your help in keeping our “Silent Hoofs” up to date. “Silent Hoofs” recognizes our USAF engineer brethren that have passed. If you know of an engineer’s passing please send us that information. We would like an obituary, the persons unit, and date of passing if it’s not in the obituary.
Our website committee has been spending a lot of time researching unit histories. Some of the unit histories have come from our old website and are in need of update. Our first posts were for RED HORSE lineage and a list of all the RED HORSE units past and present, the only expeditionary unit we have included so far is the 1st Civil Engineering Group since it didn’t start out as an expeditionary unit. We are adding the units numerically. We are looking for an individual from each unit to assist us with information on the unit’s major operations. We are especially looking for a digital copy of your units patch or emblem. Please contact us with any feedback or information you may have at reckert@rhpba.com or dwise@rhpba.com.
What has happened to all the photos from earlier RH/PB websites? The history keeps getting lost?
Ed the photos are under the more column.

I was a member of the 834 combat support group (prime beef) from late 76 until my last day in service on August 78 at Hurlbert Field, Eglin AFB, Florida. I never deployed but stood with my duffle bag, waiting on the flight line quite a few times. I came across your posting in the American Legion Magazine in February 2025. I would like to know about your group. If there are any upcoming dates closer to Northern Michigan or the spring while we visit the FT Walton Beach area. Thank you,
We are discussing the next location for the 2027 RHPBA Convention/Reunion. We expect to announce it at our 2025 RHPBA Convention/Reunion in Vegas.
