Department Commander Message
Series 2018-2019
15 NOV 2018
To our Dept. Staff, Camp Commanders,
and brothers of whom keep this great effort of Union history moving forward.
First I would like to thank all of you for your support and confidence in
placing me in such an important historical position. I hope I can fulfill your
hopes and aspirations.
Second I would like to thank you for all you have done over the years for this
fine organization. I do not know all of you, but hope over time this will
be past history.
Thirdly say hello to all who support us in this effort and please feel free to
pass this of course to all of you camp brothers, family and friends.
As you know there is quite a voice of concern here in Chapel Hill recently over
the monument Silent Sam and of course other monuments across the country.
Durham has had its share of controversy as well. Lets sit back and
let those who are still fighting the civil war try to get a handle on their
emotions. A Va. Confederate Battle Flag was flown (banner behind a small
aircraft) on Veterans Day locally around Chapel Hill. I hope that someday they
will get the message that the fighting, hatred and white supremacy is no good
for our Stars and Stripes and this nation. The nations flag is what our
organization represents. I am glad I am on the right side of history. Over
700,000 died on both sides fighting for what they thought was right.
Moving forward to the holidays I wish you all the best, safe travels, watch
those calories and try to participate in WAA and maybe purchase a wreath or two
for a marker? As of today the John. A Logan Camp (4) has purchased 9
which the camp uses as supplement for its fund raiser. $5.00 per wreath
goes to the camp. Wreaths are $25.00. Camp brothers normally purchase 12
wreaths per year. I myself have a automatic renewal account which takes no
effort.
April is around the corner for our Encampment which I heard maybe will be held
in Winston-Salem? I’ll keep you informed.
Again thanks all, let’s have some fun and proudly wear our Union Blue
uniforms that our ancestors fought and died for which kept this country going
forward. Equality and freedom.
In Fraternity, Charity and Loyalty, take care.
