72,400! Do you know what that number is and what it represents? First District Commander, Nathan Bond, wants you to know! This is the approximate number of veterans in First District. “THE MEMBERSHIP NUMBERS DON’T MATTER! It is the veterans and their families that those numbers represent that matter,” said Cmdr Bond.
Cmdr Bond reiterated to the Kenosha County Post Commanders his dedication to increasing the membership of the “most important veterans organization that ever existed.” He continued, “Our membership mission is to let as many of the 72,400 know what we do. It’s not the number of times you ask someone to join, it’s them wanting to join that’s important, and you need to tell them why they want to join this winning team… It should be our goal to let every one of the 72,400 know, as often as possible, what we are doing. Because, they want to know; they need to know. They want to continue their service to the country, and they want to be part of a winning team! Isn’t that why you joined?”
