To find the
best reason to launch and popularize our Squadron 668 Website / Blog was only
going to come with time. At this point I want to introduce myself as the
Historian for Squadron 668.
Hello, I am Blaine Scott better known as Scotty to our Post Members.
Along with the SAL Commander
Tony Waterer and the SAL Adjutant Frank Larkin we have been working steadily
since September of 2012 to reassemble our Squadron back into it’s rightful
place as a productive squadron and part of the Bateman Gallagher Post honored membership. It is
my honor to work with all our elected squadron officers as our squadron’s
Historian and Communications Officer.
As a
Historian, during the coming months I will be giving you more updated
information about our Squadron as well as information from the State and
National Sons of the American Legion leaders. We will also be sharing upcoming
events as well as fascination history of what other posts as well as our post
has made in our quests to help our Veterans, our communities as well as our
Country. By acknowledging the good deeds of our Post 668 and the deeds of other
posts we will get a better idea of what true Americanism is all about and this
in my opinion will help bring us together as a Post with other Posts increasing
the value of our Post in our veteran community and by promoting our Post and new
Post 668 Website.
In listening
to the above speech by Chris Huntzinger (SAL National Commander) we get a wonderful picture of the
vision the SAL means to our posts, our community, as well as the veteran community.
We also learn what we can do as the SAL member to promote and keep our members
active by encouraging and promoting not only the SAL but the American Legion
and the Auxiliary by carrying application form to each membership or telling them
where they can access the information and applications. This is easy now that we
have our Website / Blog which you can access on your computer, IPad, or
Smartphone by going to www.SALSqudron668waynepa.org. You will see as you click
around our website / blog we are linked with the Bateman Gallagher Post website and the
Unit 668 Auxiliary website where you can get the information and forms you need
for anyone interested in becoming a member of our post.
Hint:
If you know someone who is interested in becoming a member of our Post in any member class forward them correspondence to our activities and events or get their e-mail address and we will do it for you. By doing this they can get to know us increasing their interest in enrolling with us. And, we will be happy to soon add more members as Social Members when the final paperwork for the Radnor Veteran's Association is complete so no one interested in becoming a worthy member of our Post will be turned away.
Now for some
SAL and post News
SAL Commander
Tony Waterer is proud to announce we the SAL Squadron 668 will take our place
as in the past in hosting the first two Legion Barbeques or Barbecues depending
on how you want to spell it will be Thursday May 23, and Thursday May 30, 2013. We
also as the SAL will be providing the support to the post in cooking for the
Post Memorial Day Celebration. We need volunteers from any post members in
helping in the post and not with the parade to join us. Most important we would
like a good showing from the SAL Membership in helping with any Memorial Day
Post 668 Celebration activity parade or the post please contact the Post for
more information @ (610) 688-9713 or e-mail us @ info@salsq668waynepa.org.
