As Senior Vice, a part of that position is membership. I am looking at ways to get the information out, to inform all as to what we do and how we can help those Vets in Orland Park and Orland Township. The number of Vets is declining. I still believe they all need some form assistance. 

 

After my release from active duty and coming home, many of my friends and those who I went to school with rejected me for having served. Name calling, etc. For many years I would not talk about my military service. Yes, I did two tours of Viet Nam with boots on the ground, even though I was Navy. I know what It is like not to be wanted. I believe the vets of today need help as we all needed help after returning. If you know any returning Vets, let us know.

 

 At present, the count I have is ___ members, ___ dues paid and __ unpaid dues.  These, number are changing, and the final numbers should be done by mid-November.

 

The next Poppy fund drive, November 6th and 7th, needs manning at certain locations. Please check the attached for those locations that need manning. Your support is needed.

 

Respectfully,

Bob Reger Senior Vice Commander
