Dept of Texas,
It is with a heavy heart that I pass on the details for Al Kotrla funeral service. I realize that this is a very short notice, so I ask each of you to get the word out as soon as possible.
Marines, Members, Associates, Auxiliary, Guests and Friends,
This is a reminder that the cutoff for earlier registration for the Convention (and thus the $10 registration fee vs. the full $15 fee) and the cutoff for the Banquet Registration is May 26th. That is this coming Thursday. Convention is only 32 days away. We want to see as many of you as possible at the convention and at the Banquet.
At this time we have received official delegate registration forms from approximately 1/4 of the detachments in the Department.
Commandants and Adjutant/Paymasters please make sure you get your delegate forms into us.
Members, while it is the detachments responsibility to submit the delegates, it is an individual responsibility to register, but if you need help please let me know and I will be happy to assist. I am available most evenings and can be reached at my personal cell phone 909-401-4033.
Respectfully,
CJ Dressler
Judge Advocate and local registrations/delegate committee chair
RGV Detachment 1456
This past Monday, one of our own was selected for a great honor by the County of El Paso, Texas. Robert Way, a Department of Texas Past Commandant, was named the 2019 El Paso County Veteran of the Year and earned a position on the "Veterans Wall of Honor" which recognizes all Veterans of El Paso County.
Robert Way is an outstanding Marine and truly a shining example of selfless service, dedication to duty, reflecting great credit upon himself and keeping with the highest traditions of the Marine Corps.
