Editor’s Note

I was just changing the date on the banner at the top of page one to “Issue 1, Volume 9” which made me realize that this is the beginning of my ninth year of producing a newsletter for 8870.  Over that time, a lot has changed, but 8870 has consistently been one of the best Posts in the District and in the Department of Washington.  We’ve picked up a lot of new members, lost some old friends, and done a lot of good for veterans and for our community over that time.  Under Fred Apgar’s command, we will continue to do great things in the coming years as well.
