As chapter president, I want to take this opportunity today on 16 March to tell our members that during this health crisis, we will do our best to live up to our national motto of: “Never again will one generation of veterans abandon another.” Although we canceled our monthly meeting this Thursday, our executive board will continue to function and be there to help all veterans with special needs. For now, let’s all concentrate on following the CDC protocol guidelines because of our higher demographic risk. We will get though this crisis because of our grit and determination—traits we all exhibited in our time of national service in the 1960s and 1970s. Keep the faith brothers. Jay Kalner
