Sir, my congratulations! (Or condolensces, as applicable...
) Having served in a similar capacity as commander of a veteran's post, due to the demise of the previous commander, and no one else being able to step into the breach, I did. Whereupon, the breach was slammed shut on me for about two years!
Finally relieved this past January by my Senior Vice-commander, who was previously unavailable for a year...serving in "Frozen Chosen". He retired as an Air Force E-9. When you want something done, get a Chief to do it right! He will!
Anyhow, my heartiest congratulations. I stand ready to do what I can to keep the Ordnance accoutrements supplied!
