Greetings from Executive Boardas of 3/3/22
Into the future, this posting will be the place for members to catch-up on current news:
Ken Karpy , E-board commitee member has news about BURN PITS:
Please note the first story about the VA moving forward on claims filed by Vets who have been
exposed to the deadly toxins near the burn pits. Legislation has been proposed but has languished since April.
Our Commander has written a letter to the Lorain County newspapers about this travesty to our vets
as none of our local politicians have co-sponsored this. Their phone numbers have been identified
hoping people will call them seeking their support.
Burn Pits were mentioned in State of Union speech; please act on this movement
by the politicians, it is encouraging to see the issue mentioned.
Please watch for the letter and call your reps. These 3800 claims are a great start
but almost 3 million troops were exposed to those 250 deadly burn pits. Thanks Ken.
As always, the E-board seeks the posts' recovery from this period of uncertainty, restriction and closure, and
to return it to a vibrant and reliable meeting place for our Veteran community. Your volunteer efforts can help - please ask.
