No. 1 Edited by Katherine Kersten Website: navyleaguepittsburgh.org https://www.facebook.com/NavyLeaguePittsburgh/ Letter from the President Friends of the Sea Services: Last November I was approached by several members of your Leadership Team and asked if I was interested in serving as your President. Flattered at the time, I told them that I would seriously consider it, but that a final decision would require additional input and consideration in order to make an “informed decision”. It had been some time since I was an “active member” of the Pittsburgh Council and quite frankly was comfortable in my current retirement and needed some more information before I agreed. Following several weeks of considering the impact on the status quo, my attendance at the December meeting of the Board of Directors, The Navy League of the United States and my belief that I could be a positive Serving the Sea Services since 1902 contributor to the Council’s mission, I agreed to accept the offer and submit my name to the nominating committee. The result was a week- distilled the list to three individuals and three long campaign during which I ran unopposed, I groups that during my review reached out to me received what I will now consider a landslide to demand our collective thanks for a job “Well victory, delivering a mandate to move forward Done” They are as follows: serving the Sea Service community with the First, Bob MacPherson for his personal dedication and professionalism that is the dedication and sacrifice in providing exemplary hallmark of our Navy League Council.
