Box 11248 Fort Lauderdale, Florida 33339-1248 Scott Vulpis, Commandant www.mcleague1058.org James DuVall, Adjutant [email protected] [email protected] March 2011 To all Members: It is time again to pause and take a moment to salute our Iwo Jima members. This coming March 26th will be the 66th anniversary of the Marines claim to victory on the island and we want to recognize members John Townley, Charles Dipaola, Dick Handley , and our good friend Bob Beale, for their duty and courage during this epic Marine battle. Thank you again for your service and God bless you all. We had a good day at the Detachment Tag Sale on Saturday February 26th and had enough sales to reach our first goal of a establishing a $500 scholarship donation. A big thanks goes out to all of the donors and volunteers like Kevin Bolender, Scott Egan, John Jordan, David Knipp, Ed O’Donnell, George Rafajko, Corpsman Jerry Biondolillo, Amy Vulpis, and the Executive Hardware staff. Thank you all again for your hard work and support for this good cause. Also, this month we want to welcome our newest member from West Virginia, Marine Don Justis, who is a retired ‘ground pounder’ and proud of it. Oorah...let’s hear it for the 0300’s ! Welcome aboard ! Unfortunately, we must conclude on a sad note having to report the recent loss of two of our fellow members. Marine Fred Castonguay, who was a long time member and was known for his kindness by donating hand made Eagle Globe and Anchor license plates to our Birthday Ball event’s for gifts and raffle items each year. He was a good man and will be missed by many. Also, we had the untimely death of first year member Marine Dan Dechert, who was a retired NJ State Trooper and had joined our unit with an interest in the Detachment shooting program. He was a good man who loved to be in the presence of fellow Marines and will be missed as well. So, in this time of loss, please remember to keep their families and loved ones in your thoughts and prayers.

[email protected] _____________________________________________________________________________________ PDD Phil Ruhmshottel rd rd Volume 16, Issue 3 53 Chief Devil Dog FIRESIDE THOUGHTS FROM THE 53 CHIEF Winter, 2009 There is nothing like the aroma of a big dog resting too close to the fire. It feels great too. Recently, I was relaxing in front of the fire while reading my department’s newsletter when I realized that since I joined the Marine Corps League in 1992 my department has grown by eight detachments and another was revived after many years of just sitting on the books. We have almost doubled the size of the department in the past 17 years. For a department as small as mine this is quite an accomplishment. Most of the new detachments and many of the older ones are very active and participate in a large number of MCL and community activities. Due Date for Spring Issue As Paul Harvey would say, “AND NOW FOR THE REST OF THE STORY”. During the WOOF-O-GRAM same time period while my pack has formed two new pounds we have had two pounds turn in their charter and several others are struggling to find able and willing 15 March 2010 members to fill out their slate of officers. Getting installation and other reports from INSIDE THIS ISSUE: some pounds can be worse than pulling teeth. I have seen strong active pounds lose members to the point where they barely have a quorum and go through the motions Sr.
