He received a bachelor of science degree from the U.S. Military Academy, West Point, N.Y., in 1949, and a master's degree in business administration from The George Washington University, Washington, D.C., in 1963. The general is also a graduate of Squadron Officer School at Maxwell Air Force Base, Ala., in 1955 and the Industrial College of the Armed Forces at Fort Lesley J. McNair, Washington, D.C., in 1966.

  • 60012 Accepted 5/21/2008
    Postal Regulatory Commission Submitted 5/29/2008 11:46:31 Filing ID: 60012 Accepted 5/21/2008 May 21, 2008 Good afternoon. I appreciate the invitation to be with you all, here in Flagstaff today, and to offer what I hope may be food for thought – and more – regarding the present re-consideration of the notions of Universal Service, the Universal Service Obligation , and the Postal Monopoly, and to join in on the discussion of these important topics. I am here as the owner and publisher of The Flute Network. We are a small entirely volunteer entity now closing in on the end of our 24 th year of service as a “bulletin board service” for flutists, flute teachers, and the people who love these kinds of folks. In addition to a website presence (which has become absolutely requisite in recent years for businesses of all kinds), we continue to organize and publish an adletter of typically 8 – 12 pages, which goes out free of charge 9 times a year, now to some 6,100 different subscribers nationwide. It is on behalf of our subscribers, and all those whom we serve by including their notices, that we’ve been tracking the flow of Flute Network mailings over the years. As with most such things, the timely receipt of our mailings is a large part of what keeps them valuable – for example, it does no good to learn of a concert or other event that one might have wanted to attend, two weeks after it happened. What is frustrating is when this kind of thing happens and those notices had actually been mailed three weeks before those events, and by the Post Office’s own standards should have been received by all in plenty of time.
