Col. Edward L. Fieg Receives Appointment

Col. Edward "Eddie" L. Fieg, fresh back from his second tour in the Middle East, has been named chief of the medical staff at Travis Air Force Base near Napa, CA. Eddie and his wife Barbara Harris, a registered nurse, will move later this summer from their present location at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Dayton, OH. They have secured lodgings at a private golf course community outside Travis A.F.B

With great pride, we announce that Eddie, recently promoted to full colonel, has been awarded the Bronze Star for performance above and beyond the call of duty in combat in Afghanistan. He formerly served a tour in Iraq and two tours in S. Korea, and is approaching his twenty-fifth anniversary in the armed services, having formerly served in the Army.

Eddie formerly attended State University of New York at Oneonta and Corning; and is a graduate of Duke University.

Presenting Hannah June Harvey!



On June 10, Miss Hannah June Harvey came into this world in Des Moines, IA. She weighed eight pounds and fourteen ounces, and the proud parents are Emilie Harvey (daughter of Karen Fieg and Ed Fieg Sr.) and Harv Harvey. Hannah is a fourth generation descendant of Carl and Emilie Fieg.
The photo on the left is of Hannah, coming home from the hospital. On the right, Aunt Nancy Fieg holds Hannah and Emilie and Harv's first child, Paige, 20 months old.

Please send your well wishes (and a couple packs of Pampers, oh yeah!) to the proud parents.
