The terrorists’ destination is a tiny Aegean island where a U.S. aerospace corporation carefully guards the Cyclops 20-megawatt laser launch facility. But the company security force is no match for the firepower of the Arab invasion and the launch site is quickly overrun. With helpless horror, the executives can only watch as renegade technicians convert the launch vehicle into a ballistic missile that can deliver their stolen thermonuclear warhead to any city in the U.S.

Club Officers & Managers Director’s Message Region Director James Shelton Chantler Jim Chantler, Normandy Park WA (2018) Hello Lincolnoids, 206-356-3786 -- [email protected] Another season has completed its run and we are into autumn of 2016. It has certainly been a summer with ups and Assistant Region Director downs. Susan Addy, Silverdale WA (2017) In August it was off to The Dalles for a car show and cruise 360-509-3693 -- [email protected] organized by Bob Weeks. In this issue you will be able to read about this event. As a prelude, let me just say it was HOT. Thanks Secretary to Bob and Elva Weeks for coming up with a great event. It would Kris Sundberg, Mercer Island WA (2018) have been nice if we had greater participation but “them’s da 206-240-1559 breaks,” as they say. Then it was off to Denver for the Western National Meet Treasurer in early September for several of us. Chris Gray and I drove down Sean Streeter, Washougal, WA (2016) to Denver as a tag team again (we also did it last year with several 360-835-3806, [email protected] other PNWR members) and with the luck of the draw there were no unwanted mechanical issues and we made great time.
