WALKER ABSTRACT The eighty-six years from 1860-1945 was a momentous one in American Indian history. During this period, the United States fully settled the western portion of the continent. As time went on, the United States ceased its wars against Indian tribes and began to deal with them as potential parts of American society. Within the military, this can be seen in the gradual change in Indian roles from mostly ad hoc forces of scouts and home guards to regular soldiers whose recruitment was as much a part of the United States’ war plans as that of any other group.

While we continue to make improvements in our financial performance, initial reports on current reve- nues, modified income, and net income for the Company are all higher than both the planned budget for 2019 and the year-end results of 2018.

Additionally, all of these accom- plishments greatly enhance our relationships with our customers. I am proud to say UIC has maintained a trend of profitability every month since March of 2018. As we lead up to the 2020 Annual Meeting of Shareholders on June 6, all current indicators suggest continuing growth and improvement for the foresee- able future.

    DEOMI 2001 Calendar Cover Images The images on the cover of the 2001 DEOMI calendar attempts to capture the theme of the calendar, “A Celebration of Diversity and Multiculturalism in the Armed Forces Reserve and National Guard.” These images, from left to right and top to bottom are: Lt. Gen. Edward Baca, chief of the National Guard Bureau, 1992-96, is of Mexican-American heritage, from New Mexico. Appointed by President William Clinton in October 1994 as the Guard Bureau’s 24th chief, General Baca retired on July 31, 1998, after 42 years of military service. In his 46 months as chief of the National Guard Bureau, he was one of the most widely traveled chiefs in National Guard history, and influential in expanding the Guard’s horizons beyond this nation’s borders.

NATIVE VOTE 3 DOI Briefing 4 As this year draws to a close, we find ourselves facing many challenges and preparing to make the most of many new opportunities. The last quarter of CONVENTION 2014 was dominated by a focus on Election Day. Many important issues were broached at this year’s annual gathering (see the full resolutions packet at the co-chairs 8 end of this report), but the election loomed large in all of our discussions and resolutions 8 decisions at the end of October. We debated our positions openly and Convention feedback 8 thoroughly. Once again, we demonstrated the power and authenticity of our democratic decision-making process. And, in the end, we chose to endorse awards 9 excellent candidates for office among a field of worthy contenders. Sponsors 11 CELEBRATE Subsistence 12 Equally important, we showed up on November 4th. Our ongoing efforts to engage our communities in the political process made last month’s race extremely close. Our participation left no doubt that our people must have a seat at the table, our needs must always be considered in any statewide decisions and as our representatives contribute at the national level. AFN thanks the organizers of the Native Get-Out-The-Vote effort and the regional organizers who gave so much of their time and creative ideas to turn out the vote. Without their dedication, it would not have been successful.

By the time of the Dutch Harbor bombing, a Major Marvin R Marston had submitted a new plan to defend the entire Alaska coast by enlisting the local citizens.
