UNSERVICABLE FLAG DISPOSAL CEREMONY

June 14, 2017

From: Commander Welder 

Fellow Legionnaires and Auxiliary.  As we start a new year, I hope everyone is healthy and ready to make 2017 a productive year for our post.  We seriously need a service officer to help veterans in need.  If you could possibly fill this position please let me know.

Our post provided color guards and school presence at several Veterans’ Day events in November.  I’d like to thank all those who participated.  

FOR GOD AND COUNTRY

2017 DUES ARE DUE. The way the Legion dues structure is set up; the year starts on July 1st thereby making your dues payable at that date. It must be the Detroit influence – remember how you always could buy next years model in July or August. If you are able to, please pay the dues as soon as you are able to. I have your 2017 Membership Card already in hand. If you choose to pay over the Internet – mylegion.org – then you card will be about a month later, because of the delay in notification from the National office.

The Post has an assortment of Medical Support Equipment – such as:
    4  Wheel Chairs        6  Walkers
    6  Sets of Crutches        2 Shower Chairs
and miscellaneous other stuff. Any member can borrow any of these items at no cost just by contacting the Chaplain or the Adjutant and showing their Membership card at the time of pick up. This is an extra benefit for our veterans and their families.

Emergency Preparedness
Allaround the Pacific Rim we hear of earthquakes of a magnitude of greater then 7. Places like Chile, Japan. Indonesia experiencing devastation and hardships in large scale that is hard to overcome. So, even if our superior structures increase our chance for survival – the aftermath will severely affect our infrastructure and social fabric. So, PLEASE, lay by enough RESERVES of food and water tha will sustain you for a couple of weeks or more. Do not rely on your children or relatives for the will not be able to reach you and your neighbors did not even receive this warning. As the Boy Scouts say – BE PREPARED.
