Ten wives of NWSC veterans who had been neighbors in Dawson Creek
started annual reunions at various locations along the highway. A
governor attended one of those early meetings. The 21st and final
formal reunion in 1999 was held at the Radisson Hotel & Conference
Center in Albuquerque, New Mexico. As of December 2010 one of the
very few people still alive is Mae Meglen in Minnesota.

the Headquarters of the Northwest Service Command (NWSC). Only one
younger soldier served with the 10,000 in the NWSC. With parental
permission a Selective Service number could be called up early.
