GENERAL ORDERS # 8

January: 2010
TO BE READ, ACTED UPON, AND FILED

Listen Cooties;

Happy New Year! As we start the new year ask yourself the following: Is your Pup Tent 100% in membership? Has your Pup Tent had a hospital visit and if so, was a report sent to the Hospital Chairman? Is my Pup Tent inspected? Have audits been completed and sent to the Grand CCDB and to Supreme Headquarters? Has the Pup Tent sent (hopefully) $1.00 per Cootie for National Home Special Project? Did any Cootie in the Pup Tent do anything for the VFW and if so, was a report sent to the Booster Chairman? If you cannot answer yes to all of these questions, it is not too late to do so.

My Chief of Staff, Stan Wert, and I, attended the Cootie Christmas Party at the VFW National Home on Saturday, December 12. We were given a tour of the National Home and met a houseparent. This was the first time that both Stan and I had been to National Home and we really impressed by the facility and had a wonderful time. I hope to go back again.
