I am a veteran of the US Navy having served from 1960-63 in the Tin Can Fleet. I have been a member of the American Legion for 18 years and have served as this posts' Judge Advocate, 2nd and 1st Vice Commander and its post Commander for three years. Currently I am on the Executive Committee, a proud member of our Honor Guard and the posts Membership Chairmen. In addition I serve on the Home Association Board of Directors as the Secretary. My personal achievement that I am most proud of is having been the program coordinator for our annual 9-11 Candlelight Memorial Service for the past six years. Lastly, my biggest wish is to have more members become active in our meetings. We can always use new and fresh ideas.
