#79 Officers
If you know
you paid your dues for 2012 and you received
another notice from National Headquarters,
disregard the notice and throw it away.
If you are not sure or have any doubts,
contact Ted Lanske 319-240-0734 or
tedsph98@aol.com
and I will check it out and get in touch
with you.
There is always a delay, from
the time the Post gets your dues, passes
through the State Department and National
records it. Efforts are being made to minimize
this problem, but every year a number of
these happen.
Please do not get upset,
but accept my apology for the inconvenience.

In Flanders Fields
In Flanders
fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.
We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie,
In Flanders fields.
Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.
Composed at the
battlefront on May 3,
1915 during the second
battle of Ypres,
Belgium by
Lieutenant Colonel John
McCrae, Canadian Army,
Medical Corps
