Observations
Please remember that we want to encourage everyone to become qualified in providing Military Honors for veterans and others who have served our great Nation. The program is called the AP3 Program and a little investigation on your part should provide us with some really spectacular results from all of you. Additionally, I’m going to make a strong recommendation and ask everyone to at least register for the National C.E.R.T. Training program.
When an individual has passed one of the elements of the C.E.R.T., a copy of the certificate should be sent online, with a copy to that individual’s Commander, to the National G-3 for his/her records. Those who have successfully completed C.E.R.T. programs will be recognized both in this newsletter and will be entitled to various ribbons/awards as Command may determine at a later date.
Those not required to register and complete these programs are those Officers who have completed the Command and Staff course and those who have been dismissed due to physical inability or infirmity. We don’t want people to think the best way for them to serve this nation is by going out and purchasing/carrying weapons of any type, except those used in the Honors program for Veterans.
