Bill Towns National Hostorian And Ohio Department Judge Advocate POSTED March 16, 2013
My fellow
Legionnaires, good morning to you one an all. I have exhausted my resources locally to find a Post or Corporate Sponsor for
two young men who, if I may say so, would be an outstanding addition to the Nation’s best Buckeye Boy State program
here in Ohio. These two young men are brothers and their brother constitutes the triplet grandsons of James Meyers, who has
passed. One of the boys is already going and the hunt is on to get his brothers in as well. Any and all help to get these young men into the program should be directed to
Roger Height at Department Headquarters. Please if you can’t maybe you know someone or some other Post looking to send
a boy with no candidates. May god continue to bless each and every one of you, Semper Fi. For
God and Country, Paul

District 14 President Michele for details Vietnam Commemoration
to be Held in March…
With the stroke of his pen
on Senate Bill 134 last year, Governor John Kasich signed Vietnam Veterans Day into law. March 26-29 of this year marks the
first state-level commemoration of Vietnam Veterans Day in Ohio. Local veterans’ organizations and communities are encouraged
to hold their own events during this time.
The March 26-29 state commemoration is planned around the theme of finally
welcoming home and honoring those who served, and remembering those who didn’t make it back. Events will be held at
the Ohio Historical Society and at the Statehouse. The highlight of the four-day commemoration is the hosting of the traveling
Vietnam Memorial Wall by the Ohio Historical Society. A formal dinner is planned for the Statehouse, along with an opening
ceremony at the Ohio
Historical Society and a closing ceremony at the Statehouse. There will also
be a final memorial
ceremony at the Wall to close out the commemoration. Future Leaders

Many Squadrons throughout the Country have not submitted this information accordingly. The information is needed for demographic
needs as well as future actuarial studies used for insurance plans, etc. The information can be submitted accordingly by postcards,
date of birth form (page 47 of the Admin Manual), member data forms, or online at www.legion.org/sons (when available) in the change of address area in the section
marked on the web page. Detachments are encouraged to pass this information on to all Squadrons and members during scheduled
Conferences and Sons meetings.

be brought to Mid-Winter Conference! Remember this is our Department Chairman Darlene Leiter's baby....lets make her proud!

Participate in Your Community's 2013 Point-in-Time Count
Ensure accurate veteran representation in national/local homeless estimates
During the last 10 days of January, all Continuums of Care (CoCs) across the country will count the number of people experiencing
homelessness in their geographic area served. This Point-in-Time count (PIT) serves as the basis of the Department of Housing
and Urban Development (HUD)'s annual homelessness estimate.
It is vital that homeless veteran service providers participate
in the PIT count in their CoC area so that veterans are accurately represented. The PIT count provides critical data and insights
into veteran homelessness and homelessness overall. It also serves as a guidepost to analyze program performance, and accurate
results are essential for effective community planning.
The PIT count always includes people served in shelter programs,
and every other year must also include people who are unsheltered. This year, CoCs are required to count people who are unsheltered.
To learn more about the PIT count in your community, click here. http://hudhre.info/index.cfm?do=viewCocContacts&stid=0

of fallen servicemembers
INDIANAPOLIS (Aug. 28, 2012) -- Working to ensure that the children of fallen servicemembers have the opportunity
to attend college, The American Legion today collected donations totaling more than $668,000 for its American Legion Legacy
Scholarship Fund. The donations, presented during the Legion’s national convention in Indianapolis, are part of the
organization’s seventh annual Legacy Run.
Money was donated prior to and during the National Commander’s
Ride – an American Legion Riders motorcycle run that started in New York on Aug. 21, traveled through Pennsylvania,
Ohio and Michigan and then ended in Indianapolis Aug. 23. Additional donations came on the convention floor, bringing the
final total to $668,421 to go toward funding college scholarships for the children of U.S. servicemembers killed on active
duty on or after Sept. 11, 2001.
“It shows our commitment, our dedication and our respect to all those great warriors
who sacrificed their lives for us, and it shows our commitment to taking care of those they left behind,” said American
Legion National Commander Fang A. Wong, following the conclusion of the National Commander’s Ride. “This fund
and what it does serve as a memory of and tribute to those men and women who sacrificed so much for our country.”
The first American Legion Legacy Run took place in 2006; the six prior Legacy Runs netted more than $2.6 million for the
Legacy Fund. This year’s top donors included the Minnesota American Legion ($40,550) and Florida American Legion ($33,046),
as well as the Legion Riders from American Legion Post 593 in Converse, Texas ($25,051). Soldiers Missing From Vietnam
War Identified
The Department of Defense POW/Missing Personnel
Office (DPMO) announced today that the remains of three servicemen, missing in action from the Vietnam War, were recently
identified and are being returned to their families for burial with full military honors.
Army Sgt. 1st Class William
T. Brown of La Habra, Calif., Sgt. 1st Class Donald M. Shue of Kannapolis, N.C., and Sgt. 1st Class Gunther H. Wald of Palisades
Park, N.J., will be buried as a group on Aug. 30, in a single casket representing the three soldiers, in Arlington National
Cemetery. Brown and Shue were each individually buried on Sept. 26, 2011, at Arlington and May 1 in Kannapolis, N.C.
On
Nov. 3, 1969, the menand six Vietnamese soldiers were part of a Special Forces reconnaissance patrol operating in Quang Tri
Province, near the Vietnam-Laos border. The patrol was ambushed by enemy forces and all three Americans were wounded. Brown
was reported to have suffered a gunshot wound to his side. Due to heavy enemy presence and poor weather conditions, the search-and-rescue
team was not able to reach the site until eight days later. At that time, they found military equipment belonging to Shue,
but no other signs of the men.
Former Rep. Ike Skelton honored by The American
Legion
INDIANAPOLIS (Aug. 27, 2012) -- Former U.S, Rep.
Isaac Newton “Ike” Skelton received The American Legion’s 2012 Patriot Award at the organization’s
annual national convention in Indianapolis today.
“We don’t always agree with Congress, which is why it is
so important for us to recognize those who have been good to us,” American Legion National Commander Fang A. Wong said.
“Although he is no longer in that body, he is still our friend – a member that has always been there for us during
his 34 years of service in the House of Representatives.”
Skelton, a Democrat, represented Missouri’s 4th
Congressional District for 17 terms. He has served as a chairman and a ranking member of the House Armed Services Committee.
Urged to run for Congress by former President Harry S. Truman, he told colleagues “Protecting our nation from direct
attack is job one.”
“It is one of the highest honors I have ever received…to be recognized for the
work I’ve done in Congress by this leading organization in America, The American Legion,” Skelton said. “The
fact that my father belonged to the Legion makes this award even more special.”
“You were a strong supporter
of military pay increases and sought to increase the size of the U.S. Naval fleet,” Skelton’s Patriot Award citation
states. “By repeatedly voting for the flag protection amendment, you sent a message that the Flag of the United States
should be respected and that desecration of this symbol of our country is wrong. The numerous accolades that you have received
from veterans are indicative of the commitment that you have demonstrated to those who have served in America’s Armed
Forces and their families. On behalf of the 2.4 million wartime veterans of The American Legion, thank you for your service
to this nation and for being a staunch advocate for America’s military.” GOLF OUTING2nd ANNUAL SQUADRON 62 GOLF OUTING

Congratulations
to the 4th, 5th, 9th and 14th districts for getting their districts cleared! Great job guys! There are quite a few districts
that are so close to getting cleared, so keep at it and we can get this done. September 12th is the National Lap goal for
the Detachment to have 10% paid membership turned in. Hopefully you have been sending them in as soon as they are paid so
that we can reach this goal. If you have any that you have not sent in yet, get them into Detachment H.Q. as soon as possible!
Keep up the good work and if there is anything I can do to help, just call or email me and I will do my best to assist you
