Respect is due every Companion as it is for every office or position held by Companions of the Order. To allow everyone free rein to express their views, wide latitude will be allowed during the debate process. However, the Order expects each Companion participating in such debates to respect the forum and their fellow Companions at all times. Certainly, dissenting or alternative views should be aired, and debate encouraged. Such things are the hallmarks of a healthy and vibrant organization. Remember, though, that dissent or alternative views can be gracefully offered. Personal attacks on fellow Companions are strictly prohibited in all forums of the Order. Presentation of individual views must be expressed in a dignified manner—calmly and intelligently. To do otherwise reflects negatively on the individual presenter and demeans the Order. 435 NORTH LEE STREET | ALEXANDRIA, VA 22314-2301 | TOLL-FREE : 877-320-3774 3 2011 NATIONAL CONVENTION BOOK 15 JULY 2011 CONVENTION GUIDANCE NATIONAL CONVENTION RULES 1. Subject to the provisions of the National Constitution and Bylaws of the Military Order of the World Wars, and Robert’s Rules of Order Newly Revised (RONR), shall govern the Convention proceedings. Any case not covered by RONR shall be decided by the Convention.1 2. A delegate desiring the privilege of the floor shall approach the nearest microphone on the floor, address the Presiding Officer as “Companion” and when recognized, state their name, chapter name, and the subject of their comments. 3. A delegated granted the privilege of the floor should confine their remarks to the question under consideration. 4. Only duly accredited delegates or their alternates, duly selected by a chapter shall participate in the business coming before the National Convention. 5.

Delegates, and Committee, Council and Board Chairs, shall be limited to three minutes speaking time. Upon request, the Presiding Officer may, at their discretion, grant a speaker additional time. 7. Unless the Military Order of the World Wars Constitution and Bylaws, or Roberts’s Rules of Order Newly Revised, provide otherwise, action by the Convention shall be by majority of the votes cast. 8. When the results of a voice vote appear doubtful, the Presiding Officer or the Convention may call for a standing vote. On a standing vote, all delegates voting shall remain standing for a determination that they are either delegates or authorized alternates and then they will be counted. 9. The Convention Committee (National or Host Chapter) shall report the number of delegates certified by the Committee at the opening business session of the Convention and thereafter as required. 10. Voting on all matters before the Convention, including proposed changes to the Order’s Constitution and Bylaws, and the Preamble thereto, shall be in accordance with the Orders Constitution and Bylaws, if not specifically covered by those documents, then by the rules set by the Presiding Officer for each office being addressed before proceeding to nominations for the next office. 1 “RONR" is the standard abbreviation parliamentarians use to cite Henry M. Robert III and others, Robert's Rules of Order Newly Revised, 10th ed. (Cambridge, Mass.: Perseus Publishing, 2000). 435 NORTH LEE STREET | ALEXANDRIA, VA 22314-2301 | TOLL-FREE : 877-320-3774 4 2011 NATIONAL CONVENTION BOOK 15 JULY 2011 11.

A member may represent but one chapter. A duly accredited alternate for the chapter may attend and vote in the absence of a chapter delegate. A chapter delegate requires written certification by the chapter commander which must be presented during registration at the National Convention. All members of the National General Staff are delegates. General staff members do not require certification as delegates; however, they should identify their General Staff status when registering at the National Convention to receive proper identification as a delegate. According to the Order’s Constitution (Article V, Section 1), the Officers of the Order, who constitute the General Staff, consist of the following: • Commander-in-Chief • Past Commanders-in-Chief • Senior Vice Commander-in-Chief • Vice Commanders-in-Chief (four each) • Treasurer General • Assistant Treasurer General • Judge Advocate General • Assistant Judge Advocate General • Surgeon General • Assistant Surgeon General • Chaplain General • Assistant Chaplain General • Historian General • Assistant Historian General • Members of the MOWW Board of Trustees • Region, State, Department and Chapter Commanders • General Staff Emeritus members • General Staff Members-at-Large (appointed and elected) • Chairpersons of all National Committees 435 NORTH LEE STREET | ALEXANDRIA, VA 22314-2301 | TOLL-FREE : 877-320-3774 6 2011 NATIONAL CONVENTION BOOK 15 JULY 2011 • Directors of Youth Leadership Conferences (YLC) sanctioned

Additionally, how does that relate to the Army’s military culture, and strategic environment? Primary research of the Infantry, Armor, and Artillery’s professional journals is used to understand how intra-organizational units’ conceptualizations of warfare related and interacted with the international system, the American national security apparatus, and the Army’s military culture.

I’m a Smithsonian Institution, National Air and Space Museum, consultant in Washington, D.C. Today is July 23, 2019, and I have the pleasure of speaking with Colonel Sally Murphy, United States Army, retired. This interview is being taped as part of the Military Women Aviators Oral History Initiative. It will be archived at the Smithsonian Institution. Welcome, COL Murphy. MURPHY: Thank you. SMITH: Would you please state your full name and your occupation? MURPHY: I was born Sally Dale Stonecipher. I was married for a short period of time, so I was a Woolfolk for a while, and now I’m a Murphy. So it’s Sally D. Murphy. SMITH: And you were in the Army. Can you tell me your dates of service, please? MURPHY: Yes. I joined the Army in 1972, at the end of the year, but reported for duty in January of ʼ73 at the Women’s Army Corps School at Anniston, Alabama, at the time. And so that was January, then. And we did a short course there, and we were sent off to the regular Army branches that were essentially the men’s branches of the Army and were trained. I went to the Military Intelligence Corps. I was supposed to be trained as a cryptographer.

  • Volume 49, Number 4 the Military Order of The
    volume 49, number 4 the military order of the world wars november 2009 it is more noble to serve than to be served The Veterans Pride campaign was launched to promote Veterans wear- ing their military medals on Veterans Day, Memorial Day and the Fourth of July. Beginning with Veterans Day 2006, the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) joined with major Veterans service organizations to bring Veterans together across the country in a symbolic demonstration of unity and patriotism. A Veteran’s military medals tell stories of service, sacrifice, bravery and accomplishment. Each story is as unique as the Veteran who wears those medals. Sharing them with family, friends and the public on Veterans Day allows America’s Veterans to tell their stories to the entire Nation and helps teach America’s youth the true meaning of citizenship and freedom. Miniature medals are one alternative that some Veterans prefer for display. Replacement medals Medals awarded while in active service are issued by the individual mili- tary services if requested by Veterans or their next of kin. Requests for replacement medals, decorations, and awards should be directed to the branch of the military in which the Veteran served. However, for Air Force (including Army Air Corps) and Army Veterans, the National Personnel Records Center verifies awards and forwards requests and verification to appropriate services.
