Commander’s Message By Alex Kolander, 414-322-8702

GREETINGS FELLOW

LEGIONNAIRES:

We are winding down with our

Motorcycle raffle that will be given away on Labor

Day at Iron Town (Old Hal’s) and need your help in

purchasing tickets and volunteering to help sell

tickets. You can contact Mike Cannon and get on the

schedule to help sell tickets where we display the

bike. Purchase your tickets from the bar tenders at

any time or at the locations where the bike is.

Remember, if you win the bike it can be repainted at

no cost to you to your own theme, as opposed to the

current paint job. Also, if you don’t ride, you can sell

it for a very nice profit.

Mark your calendars for the 3rd annual October Fest

on October 29th, 11:30 till 4:00. 150 lb. pig, German

potato salad, red cabbage, sauerkraut, German deserts

(By the Auxiliary), and German music. Don’t forget

that I will be awarding $200.00 this year to the best

voted German Costume. And, last but not least,

German beer and “Asbach Uralt” shots or mixed with

coke or the mixer of your choice.

We are in the process of reviewing our drink prices

and will hopefully institute the lower prices starting

the first of September or earlier if we can. Pass the

word!!

Please help support our 2nd and 4th Friday Fish Fry’s

by coming to eat and or volunteer to help out either in

the Kitchen or on the floor. Contact Lylette Smith to

get on the volunteer list.

volunteer and help raise funds for our post.

Take notice of our new glass rinser’s at the beer tower

locations. We now rinse each glass prior to serving the

drinks to insure any soap residue from the washer is

removed for a better tasting drink. Glasses are also

rinsed prior to being placed in the glass freezer.

The only comment I can make about the current

Lawsuit is it is making our finances strained!

Sometimes you wonder about disagreement. You can

hate the other party. You can think they’re the worst

thing that ever happened to the operation. But, then

you work harder to win the next election. When you

consistently reject the results of elections that you

don’t win, what you want is a dictatorship. Your very

own dictatorship!!

What does disagreement really mean? It means that

they don’t accept the results of any election that they

don’t win. It means they don’t believe that transfers of

power are determined by elections!

If only we all could live by the old song “Don’t worry,

be happy”, and let the driving to us (If you believe in

your leadership).

AND GOD SAID:

Choose for your Tribes wise, understanding, and

experienced men, and I will appoint them as your

heads.’

Until next time Comrades, pray for our well-being.

store to have all the new flight members names added to it.

V.A. News & Info:

1- To pay lasting tribute to the service and sacrifice of

Veterans, the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) offers

benefits for burial in a VA national cemetery or a private

cemetery. Qualified Veterans receive a government-

furnished headstone or marker, grave liner, perpetual care of

the gravesite, burial flag and a Presidential Memorial

Certificate. Spouses and other eligible family members may

be buried in VA national cemeteries as well.

2- The House Veterans Affairs Committee wants to extend

Agent Orange disability benefits to 90,000 "Blue Water"

Navy veterans of the Vietnam War by raising funding fees

under the VA home loan program — but will disabled

veterans be shielded from a funding fee, as the committee

claimed last month? An organization called the Veterans

Association for Real Estate Professionals (VAREP) argues

otherwise.

3- The Department of Veterans Affairs recently marked its

go-live date for a policy shift that now allows qualified

practitioners to log in to VA's telehealth system and see

patients without regard to state rules and regulations. The

VA delivers telehealth in clinical settings and in the home. In

VA clinics, patients and local caregivers and technicians can

connect with remote physicians and specialists, giving

patients access to providers across the VA system. Also, the

new VA Video Connect application allows in-home users to

connect with doctors, mental health specialists, nurses and

others to conduct medical visits, follow-up care and

psychotherapy. VA Video Connect is available to Android

and desktop users via the VA's website and to iOS users via

Apple app stores.

4- H.R. 299, The Blue Water Navy Vietnam Veterans Act,

passed unanimously out of the House June 25, with a vote of

382-0. The legislation will extend disability benefits

covering medical conditions associated with Agent Orange

to Blue Water Navy veterans. The Agent Orange Act of

1991 excluded those who served on ships off the coast of

Vietnam known as ‘Blue Water’ Navy veterans. H.R. 299

would extend these benefits to the Blue Water Navy

veterans. H.R. 299 will now go before the Senate for a vote.

5- The Department of Veterans Affairs has created VEText,

an interactive mobile solution to remind veterans of

upcoming appointments via text messaging. Beginning Oct.

1, veterans throughout the nation will be receiving

interactive VEText appointment reminders on their mobile

devices. Many are receiving reminders now. Make sure your

VA medical center has your current cell phone number.

6- Military retirees should soon find a postcard in their

mailboxes reminding them that TRICARE's retiree dental

program will shutter later this year. This change is due to a

law passed in 2017 which allows military retirees to access

the Federal Employees Dental and Vision Insurance Program

(FEDVIP), which also lets retirees purchase vision

insurance, an option that is not otherwise available through

TRICARE.

7-Troops with 16 or more years of service will no longer be

permitted to transfer their Post-9/11 GI Bill benefits to

a spouse or child starting next year, Defense Department

officials announced recently. Currently, troops who serve a

minimum of six years and commit to serving an additional

four years are eligible to transfer the education benefit to

their dependents. Some who agree to the four years but are

barred from completing it, such as troops who are injured

and medically discharged, are permitted to keep the transfer.

Others who start the process after getting injured can request

a waiver so the transfer can go through. But starting July 12

of next year, troops will need to start the GI Bill benefit

transfer process between six and 16 years of service,

the policy update states.

Please Remember………. That all gave some, but many

gave all!

Chaplain’s Corner... By Harvin Abrahamson, 414-462-0097

There are probably many times when

you remember you have a verhy

important engagement (business

meeting, a wedding, etc.) only to find yourself angry

and upset because you have driven into a traffic jam.

The frustration grows and finally a solution presents

itself. You find an exit and travel a completely

different route to your destination, or, resolution comes

in a form of a friendly patrol officer who allows you to

make a U turn across the grass median and you back

track to an exit where you negotiate your route and

reach your goal in a roundabout way, which often turns

out to be a pleasant driving experience.

We are like in many ways (“Are we there yet?”), a

society seeking instant gratification. We know that if

we always get what we want immediately, we never

mature; so when we are forced to travel through life in

roundabout ways, God has time to nourish, mature and

strengthen us, finally allowing us to reach wonderfully

new destinations.

Consequently, if we at times become frustrated, we

need to accept and call upon God our leader.

Respectfully,

Harvin Abrahamson, Chaplin

1st Vice Message By John Frailing, 414-331-8659

Greetings Post 449 Family,

I would like to bring you up to speed on a few changes that have been made regarding Post Officers. With the approval of the Executive Board, I have resigned as 2nd Vice Commander and have been approved to take on the position of 1st Vice Commander. Likewise Mike Diagle has reliquished the 1st Vice Commander position and is the new 2nd Vice Commander. The main reason for the change is that we will now have a better qualified person serving in each position.

I'm a 19 year member of The American Legion. I transferred into Post 449 about 4 years ago from Post 199 in St Helena, CA. I am a graduate of the Wisconsin American Legion College as well as from ALEI. I also served as the Adjutant for Post 199, achieving 100 percent membership renewal in each of my three years serving. I currently am an Honor Guard member and assist Dick Strehlow as Assistant Service Officer. Rich Baczek and myself also maintain the rifles used by the Honor Guard. I'm looking forward to meeting many more of you, my fellow Legionnaires in the weeks and months ahead.

Finally I would be remiss in my duties if I didn't encourage each of you to send in your 2019 dues and continue to sign up a new member or two.

The President’s Message By Pat Mustapich P) 262-617-3817 mustapich@hotmail.com

First of all I would like to send a belated Hap-

py Birthday to all the Auxiliary Ladies and

juniors who had a birthday in July. Happy

Birthday to the Ladies and juniors who have a birthday in August.

I hope you had or have a wonderful day. You all deserve it.

The convention was in Oshkosh this past month. It was the first

American Legion one that I have attended. There was a lot of

information one could pick up on Friday, during a break out ses-

sion. Some of the information is regards to Publicity, junior activ-

ities, Parliamentary Procedures, etc. to name a few. Along with

this, there were information tables for our veterans, raffles, and

items from a few vendors to purchase. Congrats to Sam Catura,

who was installed as our District President. I know she will do a

fantastic job. Some of the other district officers are Lylette Smith

1st Vice, Kitty Larkin Secretary and Bonnie Picszczek Sargent of

Arms. Congratulations to all.

I have been meeting with a couple of our auxiliary members with

regards to fund raising. They have a great idea. At this time, I

cannot elaborate since the executive board has not met yet. We

met on the 31st of July.

It is not too early to think of Christmas and the kid’s party, which

is the 2nd weekend in December. As you go out shopping be on

the lookout for some toys to donate. Remember that the toy,

book, gift card, should be at least $10 regular cost. We will be

collecting those stuffed animals too. You can start bringing them

to the September meeting. There will be boxes to which you can

put them in. You will be able to tell.

Notes From The Membership

Team… By Anita (Sam) Catura

414-418-0289, acatura@wi.rr.com

OK- Get Ready for a whirl-wind year. It is time to turn

things around and everyone start thinking positive

thoughts ENTHUSIASTICALLY!

If you are an American Legion Auxiliary member PLUS you want to have

fun PLUS you are focused on our mission PLUS you will work that

mission remembering “Service not Self”, add together and then multiply

that by over 400 members and what do you get? A high-quality unit that

tops all others in the state of Wisconsin. Unit 449 – get Enthused! We can

do it if we work as a team.

I will have the 2019 membership cards at the August meeting. So, what

are you waiting for? Bring the dues to the Post and drop them in an

envelope to my attention in the blue boxes located at the front and back

entrances. OR bring your dues to the August meeting and hand them to

me. OR you can pay on line by visiting the national website:

www.ALAforVeterans.org and go to the members only tab, create a

log in ID if you don’t already have one. OR call National direct @ (317)

569-4500 Mon-Fri 7am to 3:30pm. This is a preferred way if you want to

pay for more than one family member at a time. I will be sent a report

from National to inform me and then I will provide you with your 2019

card. OR you can mail your renewal directly to me: 4660 N 69th St

Milwaukee, WI 53218

Any questions call: (414) 418-0289 and leave a message. I am not able to

take calls at work and I will get back to you as soon as possible. You can

also email me: acatura@wi.rr.com and I will get back to you.

Remember: Seniors (over the age of 18) dues are now $30 Juniors (under

the age of 18) now $5.75

Our Veterans need us, and they will always need us. Our dues help not

only our local unit but State and National support the Veterans. Together

we need to build a stronger unit and continue to “just ask” others to join us

to ensure all Veterans now and in the future are receiving the benefits they

deserve.

As our Department President would say: “keep the flame burning”

F.L.A.M.E. – Faith Leadership Attitude Mentor Encourage. Work the

mission and never forget – THAT IS WHY WE ARE MEMBERS OF THIS

GREAT ORGANIZATION.

2nd Vice Message! Jennie Riemer P) 262-215-8617

I’d like to introduce myself, I am the 2nd Vice for

the ALA.

We are working on getting the Badger Girls to attend and speak at the

August meeting. Michelle Johnstone and the executive board are our

hostesses for the August meeting.

I will have sign-up sheets for hostesses for future meetings. If anyone

has suggestions for programs they would like to have at future meetings

please share them with me. I would appreciate your suggestions.

Hope everyone is enjoying their summer. Hope to see you in August

at the Auxiliary meeting.

with 83 new and renewal memberships along with

a check for $747.00. So congrats to those of you who signed up for

“Greetings” to all from Leigh Rainer, your S.A.L. Grand

Puba.

Our next S.A.L. meeting is on September 4, 2018…. I would

like to ‘THANK’ everyone that came out and supported our 4th

of July celebration. It’s good to know that you people support

your S.A.L. at this function. The money raised will go to the DE-

FENCE fund that will make our patio look great again. By the

way, whomever donated those trees with lights on the patio,

good call and Thank You. As we are planning our next

S.A.L.outing in August at the Miller Tour , please ask those

from last year’s Pabst tour, how much fun we had. It was my

pleasure to tell people of my past knowledge of Pabsts history in

all those old buildings. A signup sheet will be posted in the front

hallway for those who want to attend. More can be found in

Mike Pooks column to what we are planning.

“Someone told me that when I was born, I was so ugly that they

put dark tinted windows on my baby crib?”

We are the “Sons of the American Legion,” a team you can

depend on.

God bless our veterans, our military, and the United

States of America.

My Two Cents... By Mike Pook, Squadron 449 Finance Officer

Oshkosh was the host of 100th State Convention

for the American Legion. The Sons met Friday

afternoon thru Saturday until 3pm with voting at

noon on Saturday. The Convention is modeled

after the political conventions; each squadron sends delegates

according to their membership size and/or has delegates at

large. The Convention has standing committees that can make

recommendations for change in the origination, they report on

numbers that were submitted by the squadron’s yearly reports and

recognize their accomplishments. This year Squadron 449 received

8 awards. The convention also has committee meetings, business

meetings, and election of State Officers. Squadron 449 presented a

check for $3500 raised from the June 2 Josh Dog Fundraiser. This

is Americanism in action!

SAL 449 can send about 20 delegates to convention. IF we wanted

to, we could put our people in the standing committees and force

change within the organization. In addition the candidate of our

choice would swing the vote to our favor again forcing a change in

the elected officer core. Generally only those currently servicing

and a few Squadron Commanders or VCs attend. The general

squadron member think they have vested interest in what is going

(Brad)

won several awards for the programs we support both as

individuals, and as a squadron. "Best Community Service Program

- honorable mention"; "Citation of Excellence to the Child Welfare

Foundation"; "Citation of Excellence for the GI Josh Program";

"Citation of Excellence for the National Emergency Fund"; "Best

veterans Affairs & Rehabilitation Program"; "Best overall program

on the 2018 consolidated report". All these aforementioned were

"Honorable Mention" aka 3rd place. We did however receive 2nd

place for the "Highest Amount per Capita to the national

emergency Fund".

Understand that these awards would not be possible without the

help of all the 'active', reporting members of our squadron. With

179 members, we should get 1st place in all categories, but we

only have 7 members who reported what they did. YOU, as an

individual member can be giving money to children's charities of

any type and it would count. YOU, as an individual may be giving

blood or plasma at work or elsewhere but it still would count. But

you have to let me know by April 30th of 2019. You may have

noticed that we didn't win any membership awards. That is because

while our 100% goal was 214 members for 2018, we only reached

179. That's 35 short of 100%. Can we do better this year? I hope

so. Note that our dues have increased again, in anticipation of

Detachment and National increases. Though at $20.00 per year or

$35.00 for 2 years, they are right on par with all other squadrons in

the area, and much less than several squadrons in the Detachment.
