As a Center of Excellence, we are committed to ensure that all available resources are used to assist personnel of the Naval Services – active duty, retired, and their eligible family members – to achieve financial self-sufficiency and find solutions to emergency needs. Our Guiding Principles We are committed to providing quality service. We will meet our clients’ emergency needs and, through quality services and programs, help them develop viable and lasting solutions to their problems. Our staff will apply the Society’s policies on a consistent and compassionate basis. We will respond to emergent needs and changes. We value our clients. We will: • Provide a non-judgmental atmosphere that encourages our clients to achieve self-sufficiency; • Preserve their dignity and self-respect; • Maintain appropriate and effective communications with commands; and • Respect client confidentiality within published guidelines of the Society. We are committed to good stewardship. We will be responsible stewards of the financial resources entrusted to us: We will exercise conscientious and diligent management of the Society’s funds. We value our staff. We will provide our staff – volunteers and employees – with the training, education, and other tools necessary to attain the highest levels of effectiveness and professionalism throughout the organization. We value volunteerism. We are committed to the principle of Volunteer Service; we will empower our volunteers to administer the programs of the Society. We believe in personal financial responsibility. By helping clients develop their own problem-solving capabilities, the Society encourages personal financial responsibility; we recognize that the best solution is not necessarily direct financial assistance.

It’s an honor for our program. James Clements: Thank you. Sir, the first question that I always like to start off with is please just tell us a little bit about your childhood and your life before you entered the military. James Clements: Well, it’s pretty simple. I was born in Haskell County, Texas, in 1924, August the 20th, 1924. My father was a farmer and he and mother were married I think a little better than 50 years and had five children. In ’29, he left the farm in 1929, due to he lost it actually. The bank didn’t foreclose, he just gave it to ‘em. And he was a bridge builder, went into that, and dams, and the carpenter type thing. He worked all his life, and that’s where I got into that particular business as well. I have a brother who served in World War II, and I have a brother who served in the Korean War, in the Navy. Of the five siblings, where were you in the order? James Clements: In the middle.
