NEC Report The National Executive Committee was held on December 3rd and 4th in Washington, DC at Hilton-Washington-Dulles Airport. On Friday,
December 3rd the National Service Foundation Meeting was held.
Executive Director Joe Piening said they were man-aging to hold their own, although, donations and other fundraisers were coming in slowly. The Finance Com-mittee also met on Friday afternoon. National Finance Officer, John Mitchell announced National Finance Di-rector Velma Hart was let go to save a sizable amount of income. All other directors were also asked to cut their budgets by 10%.
The Membership Meeting was held on Friday 3rd as always with renewals continuing to be a problem. First Vice Commander Frye urged everyone to make personal contact with renewal members. As of January 1, 2011 life membership will increase to $200.
National Programs Director Beryl Love announced he was disappointed in the turnout at Freedoms Founda-tion at Valley Forge, and he urged all Departments to participate more in the coming years. Beryl also an-nounced Community Service Reports are getting better, but still would like to see some improvement.
National Service Director Denny Boller announced hiring of three new NSO’s. All Service Officers are do-
ing a great job. All Service Organizations are urging Congress to speed up the claim processing.
It was announced by our National Legislative Direc-tor Ray Kelly that he has resigned to accept the same position with the VFW.
The University of Atlanta has come on board to of-fer scholarships to veterans and their families. The Uni-versity of Phoenix announced they are continuing their scholarship program.
Choice Hotels had a spokeswoman there to announce they are continuing their relationship with us. Jim has brochures for membership and program awards. There is also a Riders information packet available.
The next NEC Meeting will be held in Washington, DC at the Hilton-Washington-Dulles Airport on March 18 and 19, 2011.
Local Post Reports Are you mentioned? - Page 3
Our Winter DEC in Clemmons was quiet a success. Our National Ladies Auxiliary President, Dee Kreiling, was able to visit with us. Everyone enjoyed meeting her at
her reception, the meetings and the reverse drawing. This was the first time she had seen a reverse drawing and is eager to share with her local auxiliary in PA.
The reverse drawing was a success and the food was great. Thank you to all who helped with the food and the items donated for the auction. A special shout out to Ways and Means Chairman, Marcia Fenwick, for all the great cooking she did and to Nada Curphey, Scholarship Chairman, for her hard work and organiza-tional skills that kept everything running so smoothly.
Thank you also to Commander Lowry, Mike Rozmaryn, Rog-er Fenwick and the Sons for their help.
All auxiliaries were represented and the reporting is looking great. If you have questions, do not hesitate to contact the differ-ent chairmen, NEC Woman Margie Rabb or myself.
The department officer’s reports were given and everything looks good there too. Please remember to get your reports in and send your membership in as well.
We were saddened to hear of the passing of PNP Susie Sisler. She will truly be missed and our thoughts and prayers go out to her family.
Please keep our veterans, active duty military and their fami-lies and all of our AMVETS families in your thoughts and prayers.
God bless America!
Pat Pulliam,Department President

This is “RiverDance” with boots and rifles! I can’t remember ever seeing a display of precision to beat this! THIS IS THE DEFINITION OF PRECISION! Those are U.S. made Garand M-1 rifles (WWII), and they are heavy weapons (9 POUNDS EACH). When that one young fellow goes on his own - YOU’VE NEVER SEEN
A RIFLE SPUN THAT FAST - note the collective “Ooooooooo !” from the audience.

AMVETS Post 201 Holds “Salute to Veterans” at Lake Royale Clubhouse
On November 13, AMVETs Post 201 held the 2nd annual “Salute to Vet-erans” in recognition of Veterans Day at the Lake Royale Clubhouse. The ceremony was opened with a prayer by Rev. Daniel Jenks, Lt. Col.
US Army (Retired) and Pastor of Franklinton United Methodist Church. The National Anthem was performed in a duet by Linda & David McCray of the Royale Aires. Forrest Johnson Adjutant Post 201 led us in the Pledge of Al-legiance, and then, welcoming remarks were given by Dick Maryman, Com-mander Post 201.
Guest speakers included: Stuart Nottingham, representing the Lake Royale POA; Victor Alston - Franklin County Veterans Service Officer; Oceanous Lowry- AMVET NC Department Commander; and Representative John May of the NC House of Representatives. Each added meaning and purpose to the event leading to our key note speaker.
Sergeant Major Jacob Roth US Army (Retired) provided the key note ad-dress. He is the present NC Commander of Ex-POWs and had personally been held captive for over 37 months by the North Koreans during the Korean War. His personal account of his own capture and the “Tiger Death March” that fol-lowed was a moving experience with details that are dehumanizing at the hands of the enemy. He along with 700+ military captives and civilians depended upon faith, fellow detainees and survival instincts plus perseverance that few of us can relate to in our lives. Only a small percentage of the Korean War POWs have lived to tell of their experience.
We recognized collectively the veterans of each war and conflict of the 20th and 21st century. Due recognition was given to one World War II veteran who joined us for the ceremony. We were honored by his presence.
Opie Pearce laid a wreath at the podium in recognition of those veterans who have passed on. Lt. Col. Jenks provided a moving rendition of “God Bless the USA” before he closed our ceremony with a blessing.

Currituck CountyVeteran’s Day Parade 2010
The Moyock service organizations of the American Legion Post 531, AMVETS Post 269, VFW Post 10949 and the Moyock Ruritans will be putting on the annual Currituck
County Veteran’s Day Parade once again this year on Thursday, November the 11th, 2010 with staging by 10 am and the parade commencing precisely at 11am. Refresh-ments will be provided at a modest cost by Moyock’s American Legion Post 531, and marching units of U.S. Marines, U.S. Navy and U.S. Coast Guard will be par-ticipating as well. Patriotic music and pa-rade announcements will be provided by DJ John Downs Sr.
Of very special interest for this year’s event will be the inclusion of Pilmoor Me-morial’s “Pre-Schoolers”, who will be rid-ing in the parade in a trailer decorated by themselves and waving flags provided by Moyock’s VFW Post 10949 in support of our county’s veterans (all 14 of the kids - and trust me, they really put some effort into their trailer).
This effort was also co-sponsored by American Legion Post 531, VFW Post 10949, and the Ruritans - all organizations from Moyock, NC. Despite the threat of rain - we had a good turn out, and a lot of fun doing the parade.
Welcome sign
Ok gang - when you have a chance - check out the “Welcome to Moyock” sign posted up at the Moyock Wel-
come Center. LOOKS GREAT :)I won’t go into all the battle details other
than to say that, thanks to some close cooperation with Commis-sioner Paul O’Neal - I managed to get our AMVETS and their VFW Posted on the Moyock sign - which you can now all see.

Mr. Larry Cooke Commander AMVETS Post 820 2714 Charlotte Highway Mooresville, NC 28115
Dear Mr. Cooke,It was a particular pleasure to meet with you, Mr. Moore, and Mr. Wilson
this past Tuesday and I am exceptionally grateful for your extremely generous donation to Mooresville High School’s Naval Junior ROTC Program. The money will be put to good, and immediate, use in ensuring that each Cadet is able to participate in all the events and activities we offer without regard to their family’s personal financial status. Your AMVETS Post has been, and continues to be, our strongest and most consistent supporter, not only financially but also in providing annual recognition to some of our best and brightest Cadets.
On behalf of Chief Tate and all the Cadets of the Mooresville High School Naval Junior ROTC Program, please know we are very grateful for your support. You have the respect and gratitude of us all and we thank you for your generosity as well as your service. It will never be taken for granted.

27 October 2010 – Breast Cancer
Awareness Month – “Think Pink II”
Our yard sale for St Jude. Auxiliary members Linda Rumsey, Ingrid Weaver and Rachel Okun.
Having lost my mother this past year to Breast Cancer and Alzheimer’s, I de-cided to choose the Lower Cape Fear
Hospice and Care Center for the Think Pink packages.
Sixteen care packages were provided, on behalf of AMVETS Post #906, to the female patients. The pink packages were wrapped in a pink toile, a pink ribbon and a rose. They con-tained some small personal hygiene items and tagged with our logo and post number, the pink ribbon symbol with the message “Because We Care”.
The Lower Cape Fear Hospice is a beautiful care center filled with many caring and loving nurses and nurses aides. It really takes a special person to fill their shoes.
It is located in Wilmington and has 12 pri-vate rooms with views of the beautifulJapanese water garden and other gardens.
If you or a family member ever needs that individual care, they can be reached at (910)762-9422. God bless.

post 910 - aLBermarLeHoliday Celebrations
AMVETS Post 910 has been quite busy over the holiday season. We set a goal of providing 15 fami-
lies with food baskets and to send items to the troops overseas. With the help of Stanly County residents and businesses we were able to reach our goal. We de-livered 15 large baskets of food to fami-lies and sent four boxes to the troops plus accomplish quite a bit more. We took personal care baskets to 10 residents in nursing homes, put together 10 Christ-mas stockings for children, donated two large containers of beads to a young lady in Norwood so she could make bracelets. Helped a family give their child a Christ-mas with a stocking and presents for all in the family, plus a basket of food. All this was done because of donations from residents and merchants. Stanley County sure stepped up. Thank you for all your donations and help.
We had a Halloween party which was a great success. Gerry Pion and Hazel Hudson were the costume winners. We had quite a few members who dressed in costume, we all danced to a great band and had plenty of food to eat.
Twenty-four members participated in the Veterans day parade. Luckily the weather was great.
We sponsored an Elvis show, with several Elvis personators. Johnny cash also put in an appearance. Plus two sis-ters, 11 and 12. It was a great three-hour show.

Nancy Shiverdecker, PRO
Sons of AMVETS ReportThe Sons membership is down for the year.
The Son’s regret that they can’t have the fishing tournament or beach party, but we
hope to participate next year with the family pic-nic. The Son’s are seeking clothes, coat, and hats for the Vets at the V.A. hospitals. We also need phone cards for the Veterans to call their families.
The Sons are selling tickets for gas or cash. The price is a $250 cash or gas card. A dollar donation enters the raffle. This is to be given away at the April DEC meeting. I am looking forward to going to Washington in March with the Sons to talk with our Senators and Congressmen about the veterans and their ben-efits. We also will be going to the monuments where we place wreaths. I will be carrying the Sons N.C. flag during the ceremony.

DFAS customers affected by 2011 tax changes
INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. 10, 2011 - DFAS customers may be affected by recent changes to the tax law, tax tables and other legislation.
Some of the changes include:
• Reduction in Social Security tax withholding from 6.2 percent to 4.2 percent for 2011 • Expiration of the Making Work Pay credit, which may increase the amount of wages subject to income tax withholding • 1.4 percent pay increase for Military service members
The amount of the changes in net pay will depend on several factors to include the following:
• Income level • W-4 elections
Military Reservists and National Guard members will be the first to see potential changes in their pay as a result of the law. Any changes will be reflected in their January 5 paycheck.
Active duty military personnel will see their pay changes in their January 14 paycheck and reflected in the January LES.
DOD civilian and other federal employees paid by DFAS will see social security withholding changes reflected in paychecks based on the pay period ending January 1 with paydates on January 7, 11 or 13. The tax withholding changes for 2011 will be implemented for the pay period ending January 15th with paydates on January 21, 25 or 28.
Military retirees and annuitants will see the changes reflected in their March 1 payment. Retirees can view the changes in myPay on February 1 and annuitants can view the changes in myPay on February 18. Account statements with the new net pay amounts reflected will be mailed to all retirees and annuitants affected by the change in February.
Please ensure you review your pay statement to see how these changes will potentially affect you.
DFAS customers with questions on the changes should contact their financial advisors or tax consultants for more details.
Tax information can be found at the IRS website www.irs.gov.

Air National Guard director: Equitable treatment of all a "moral imperative"
By Bryan RippleDefense Equal Opportunity Management Institute
Air Force Lt. Gen. Harry M. Wyatt III, director of the Air National Guard, addresses Guard and Reserve graduates of the Defense Equal Oppor-tunity Management Institute's Equal Opportunity Advisor Reserve
Component Program on Feb. 4, 2011, at the Institute. The EOARCP curriculum develops a base of knowledge and skills that allow graduates to assess human re-lations climates in the organizations they serve, and to provide advice and assis-tance to commanders to prevent, reduce or eliminate discriminatory practices. (U.S. Army photo by Sgt. 1st Class Brian G. Rhodes) (Released)
"Our servicemembers in the National Guard and Reserve are indeed our most valuable asset," Air Force Lt. Gen. Harry “Bud” Wyatt told 87 National Guard and Reserve graduates of the Defense Equal Opportunity Management Institute’s Equal Opportunity Advisor Reserve Component Program.
“As leaders we owe them our very best efforts – and it cannot be with closed minds that we undertake this endeavor. We cannot meet mission success without the expertise and dedication of our equal opportunity specialists and advisors.”
EO programs have made important contributions to all Department of De-fense servicemembers and civilians serving in an environment of dignity, equal-ity and respect, Wyatt said.
Wyatt highlighted a photo of Army National Guard Sgt. Leigh Ann Hes-ter, vehicle commander, 617th Military Police Company, Richmond, Ky., who
received the Silver Star at Camp Liberty, Iraq.
Hester is the first female Sol-dier since World War II to receive the Silver Star.
New and evolving legislation may change to allow full equal op-portunity for women, including in combat, Wyatt said.
“DEOMI graduates are the ‘change agents’ that help to edu-cate people on the need – the mor-al imperative – to be equitable in our treatment of all people,” Wyatt said.
“Equal Opportunity Advisors recognize the responsibility to speak the truth in the face of adversity and injus-tice and are representatives of their commanders,” he said.
Below are links to this week’s stories about all the great work being done by you and your fellow National Guardmembers - both here at home and overseas.
Maybe your state and your unit are featured in this week’s lineup! Please visit our website and our Facebook page at TheNationalGuard for
these and many other stories, photos and videos. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>LTC Eric D. Maxon Acting Director, Public Affairs and Strategic Communications
