Kappaz furnishes names from chef's hat
The following men signed their names and hometowns on a chef's hat belonging to my father, George Kappaz, who was a technical sergeant and did his basic training at Camp Maxey TX.
According to my mother, he did attend some 99th reunions many years ago.
Although the quality of penmanship was exceptional by most of the men, there are some spellings of names that were not quite clear, and therefore inaccurate. There also are towns or states missing. My apologies for any inaccuracies. Please contact me regarding any corrections.
