FLSSAR Strategic Plan
Florida Society Sons of the American Revolution Strategic Planning Initiative Research Paper Submitted to: President Raymond F. Wess, FLSSAR TABLE OF CONTENTS I. Organization Description II. Environmental Scan III. Competition Analysis IV. Strengths and Weaknesses V. Finances VI. Attachments Prepared by FLSSAR Ad Hoc Strategic Planning Committee John M. Stewart, Chairman Charles R. Butler, Ralph D. Nelson, Jr., Lee W. Matson, Co-Chairmen May 3, 2017 1 Research Paper I. Organization Description Data Sources: The Florida Society's Articles of Incorporation, Website, and its published documents. When the FLSSAR enrolled its first Compatriot in 1893, Grover Cleveland was President of the United States; Florida was only sixteen years beyond the departure of its last Reconstruction troops. Coal, horses, and waterwheels powered America, and the telegraph was high technology communication. Over its nearly thirteen decades of existence, the Florida Society has made various structural, policy and operational adjustments, but the essence of the organization has remained essentially unchanged: The FLSSAR is a lineage organization established to perpetuate, and commemorate the founding principles of our republic. The charter purposes of the FLSSAR are and always will be valid. Nevertheless, the processes and procedures of its programs, operations and initiatives must be assessed periodically, and modernized to accommodate changing times. GROVER CLEVELAND The objects of the Sons of the American Revolution are declared to be patriotic, historical, and educational. Our goals are to inspire the American community at large with a profound reverence of true patriotism and to maintain and extend the institution of American Freedom. We endeavor to do this in a variety of ways through youth programs such as: elementary school American history contests, Eagle Scout recognitions, awards, and essay contests, JROTC awards, and youth scholarships and service awards. -

The Ideal America(N): Dwight Eisenhower's Elusive Search
The Ideal America(n): Dwight Eisenhower’s Elusive Search by Lisa Couacaud BA (Hons.) Submitted in fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Deakin University March 2018 Acknowledgements It is merely to state the facts as they are when I write that without the financial support of the Australian Postgraduate Award scholarship these acknowledgements would have gone unwritten, for this thesis would simply not exist. I remain indebted to Deakin University for seeing the value in this work of American history. I am grateful also for the research and conference grants Deakin makes available to their postgraduate students. The funds provided enabled me to travel to Abilene, Kansas, and conduct invaluable archival research in the Eisenhower Presidential Library. I admit to feeling like a “proper” historian only after I had sifted through scores of original documents from Eisenhower’s presidential years. I was fortunate also to visit the Library of Congress in Washington, DC, and the Columbia University Oral History Archives in New York. Today, a little more than three years after embarking upon this project, my commitment to this thesis and my belief that this work is worthy of the investment Deakin has made, persists. This has been an exciting, terrifying, challenging, anxiety-ridden and nerve-wracking process. Yet, had I the opportunity to reset the clock, I would make always the same decision. It has been nothing short of a luxury to be able to devote myself to the task of unravelling Dwight Eisenhower’s idealist imaginings of the United States for these past three years. -

Academy Welcomes Back Deployed Airmen Alfultis Noted
VOL. 46 NO.25 JUNE 23, 2006 Services programs best in AF By Butch Wehry Academy Spirit staff Each year, the Air Force recognizes its best Services units and the Academy’s outdoor recreation and golf programs are winners. Mr. Chuck Alfultis, 10th Mission Support Group’s Outdoor Recreation Center director, and Mr. Ed Ainsworth, Academy Golf Club, received the trophies at the Air Force’s Services Worldwide Conference in Keystone, Colo., June 14. Outdoor recreation won the same award in 1996 and Mr. Alfultis shared some thoughts about why the Academy wins. “There are three key factors that make for an outstanding outdoor recre- ation program,” he said. “They are base location, facility and staff. First, we are located in an area with an abundance of outdoor recreational opportunities. Second, we are centrally located on the Academy and have the space to accom- modate the storage of our more than $2 million worth of equipment and supplies. Finally, not only do we have the right Photo by Staff Sgt. Monte J.
