This may not be the right place to post( admin please delete if not appropriate )
I graduated in 1988. RG Cole jr-sr High school( yes I went to school with Shaq) I am looking for my buddy I havn't talked to in ten years. Last I knew he was in the Air Force headed for Korea.
His name is Michael Eads. I stumbled across 'Reunion.com' this morning and found his name. they had it listed as
Name:Michael Eads
State: AE
City: APO
Age: 35
School: RG Cole High School

I know it is him, but I can't join to get the information.
Question # 1: Does anyone have a membership to this site?

Q# 2: Is there anyother way that I can track him down that won't cost an arm and a leg


If anybody can help: buellin8tor atyahoo.com
Thanks, JIM

I can tell you that he is in Europe serving in either the air force or army if that is his address.

yep...although that could be the 'last known' on file w/reunion.com.
didja try just entering his name in excite.com's 'white pages', and/or checking your old school district's white pages for "Eads" (can't be terribly common), and then explaining yourself to whomever answers and leaving *your contact info as opposed to requesting his*?
you should be able to join "classmates.com" and get a message to him, as well. They're a bit more reputable and they update info for their own contacting of members for other members' purposes.

Have you tried locating/call his parents? I tried this approach when I was trying to find a friend of mine that I served with in Panama back in 1985.

Thanks for everyone's input. I tries excite.com and found only one entry that is close to his, will call tomorrow. Classmates I have a membership to and unfortuanately(sp?) he is not registered.
Buellidan-He is in the AirForce, do you know what those abbreviations stand for? ie-where is he at. If I knew that I might be able to narrow the search to a specified area.
The information has to be current do to some facts that are posted.
Thanks again.

is there some reason the USAF can't jut tell you were he is stationed and give you some contact in formation.
Or is he a "top secret" kind of guy.

That is correct. The privacy act of 1974....

BUT, when I get back to my HQ on tuesday or thursday, I will try a few things for you. In the Navy we use NMCI, the personell locator cna be usefull across all services..if my access still works, I just need a DoD computer(IP)...

But, APO AE then there will be a zip...

IF you can find the "zip", mail him...

Micheal Eads
(Command name)
APO AE
XXXXX-XXXX

You can sometimes get away with out using the command name, sometimes not...

I will try to dig something up for ya.....

Chase

EDIT, I talked to a friend of mine @ Randolf AFB.

ping me offline(if you want), and I will give you more info...

how did you do checking his surname on excite? odds are, with such an uncommon surname, you'd find a relative easily, and they could pass your info along to the young airman

His middle name is Eugene, after his father.
Tried privateeye, found old information, no forwrds or updates.
Excite-same luck!
Reunion seems to have only the most current information.
