PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
Our speaker this past Wednesday was Bill Spann, Director of Military Affairs, City of Jacksonville.
He and his team help Veterans from all branches of the service with almost any help, concerns, or advice. His office gave in excess of $25,000,000 to assist Veterans in many areas.
Dealing with the multitude of channels in each military branch requires experts like Bill and his staff.
As he put it, you wouldn't go to court in a trial without an attorney. If you are Veteran or know of one that is in need of ANY assistance or has ANY concerns Bill said to call his office at 904-630-3680.
Our speaker next Wednesday is Rick Mullaney, Director of the Public Policy Institute at Jacksonville University. This will be our last regular meeting of the year.
Steve DeSorbo
2018 President
