Commander – David Thibeau
October brought unusual events for Post 44. Commander Gary Burrows resigned due to health issues. With this vacancy, I, as 1st Vice Commander, became Commander. Al Norton was elected to fill my office and is now 1st Vice Commander. Our Chaplain, Vince Hadley, also resigned and has moved to Illinois to be with his family. We expect his vacancy to be filled this month.

Thanks, Gary for your dedicated service. Best wishes for a speedy recovery. We will miss Vince, his friendship and his dedication to the Post. We wish him the very best.

I promise to do my best honestly and fairly to fulfill the duties and responsibilities as your Post Commander.

With your help, we will continue the traditions and success of our Post
