The Hugh Purvis Reunion Association charter is to plan and arrange
reunions, assist our members in locating other
shipmates/crewmembers and provide important information from the V.A.
and other sources you may need. Membership in the HPRA is granted to
those men who served on the USS Hugh Purvis DD-709 in any year, for any
length of time, in any rank or rate. Information on membership is

A
FREE HAT For ALL New members!!
Have you ever served aboard
the USS Hugh
Purvis - DD709? If so, we would like to have you become a
member of the
Hugh Purvis Reunion Association (aka HPRA). The HPRA provides
directories of your shipmates, plans the annual reunion to interesting
places
with great tours, the annual business meeting and a formal dinner. The
reunions are for members and their spouse or significant other, or you
can just come alone and still have a great time. Membership is just $20
a year. Also, an age dependent lifetime membership is available (see
the
membership information link above). There is also a great HPRA hat
offer..
For all new paid
memberships, we will send you, postage paid, a new Hugh Purvis DD709
baseball cap (click on the hat). This is a high-quality 100% cotton hat
made by Lands' End, custom designed and embroidered. USS HUGH
PURVIS D709 on the front, Haze Gray and Underway on the back. Sign up a
friend now while supplies last!!! Contact one of your old ship-mates
and tell him what a great time we have at the reunions and how much we
would like to see him become an active member. One little phone call or
letter could make all the difference in convincing one more old
"Swabbies" to join our ranks. Our reunions provide for a great time and
we
would like to see lots of new faces, as well as all of you regular
attendees. Use the Membership Information link above for more.
