Members of the Central Valley and Spirit of Sacramento Auxiliary Chapters prepared more than 1000 packages in support of Move America Forward. These packages are sent to troops deployed all around the globe. Move America Forward (MAF) is a nonprofit military charity based in Sacramento, California and the nation’s largest grassroots pro-troop organization dedicated to supporting the brave men and women of our Armed Forces. Their principal mission today is to provide care packages and letters from grateful Americans to the troops deployed in combat areas around the world. The NCOA Rogue Chapter Chairman Terry Haines recently made several World War II Honor and Legacy medallion presentations.
The photo on the left is the medallion being presented to the daughter of WWII veteran LTC Allen Carrico. He was a bombardier who was shot down over Czechoslovakia and became a POW. The center photo is WWII veteran Harry Hudson who was in the Army Air Corps, and the last photo is of Bill Branham who was a pilot in WWII. Rogue Chapter members Byron Cordes (Knights Advisor) , Ken Wilson (Trustee), Terry Haines (Chairman), and Rachael Watters (Trustee) participate in a recent membership recruiting and fund raising event. Hats off to the Rogue Chapter - 5 new NCOA members were recruited and $340 was raised for the the local Vietnam Wall project!
