Words from the Adjutant


Many of you have asked about a report that shows dues rates.

Below is a new report for the departments to monitor post/squadron dues rates. It ultimately answers the question: "Has the post's new dues rate been recorded by national?"



If your Squadron is unsure of whether National has the correct dues listed, contact me. Please do not call Department, I will handle request for you.

Thank you,

Kevin Winkelmann
Detachment Adjutant

The newsletter for the upcoming Detachment Convention was composed and mailed this weekend. I want to personally thank Detachment Commander Fowler and his wife Tammy, PDC Brad Pack, 1st Division Commander Lewis Elam and Asst. Adjutant jerry Ventura for their help with putting this newsletter together. Not only did we get many items completed for the office, but also had fun doing so. Lewis even furnished some lunch for all that were there. If you have time to stop by the SAL Office, everything is complete. We also now have our own copy machine plus a small frig in the attached storeroom. I will be back in Austin sometime in early August composing the next newsletter. If anyone has time, stop by and join the camaraderie.

I will be in Austin this Saturday composing the newsletter for mailing. If anyone wishes to come up and help, plus see the office, I will be in town around 9:30-10:00 AM. We now have our own copy machine, plus using Headquarters machine will cut the time in half. My only issue is that I still do not have power at my house and I need to finish running the labels. Hopefully I will get power tomorrow and everything will be good. Till Saturday,

I will be submitting all forms I have in my possession next week Thursday. Your 2025 cards will be based upon these forms. There are 108 Squadrons out of 145 certified squadrons that have submitted the proper form.

Kevin Winkelmann
Detachment Adjutant


After talking with Kevin Mook this morning from National Headquarters, here is the final statement concerning the 2025 SDR blue outlined forms (if your Squadron did not receive one, let me know your number and I will get a replacement). Only the blue outlined form is permissible to use. You CANNOT use a copy from 2024. If I do not receive your form by May 1, 2024, and have it submitted by May 15, 2024, your squadron will not have any cards printed, no exceptions. If your Squadron mailed or emailed the blue outlined form directly to National Headquarters, and not to me, I need to know asap! This is critical! Division and District Commanders, you are encouraged to spread this information to every Squadron in your Division/District. I cannot stress enough the importance of this email! Please do not drop the ball on this!

Kevin Winkelmann
Detachment Adjutant


Reminder notes from your Detachment Adjutant:

#1---All 2025 SDR's are due in my email or in my mailbox no later than April 25, 2024. I must send them to National by May 1st. If your Squadron does not submit a 2025 SDR, their cards will not be printed. No exceptions. District and Division Commanders, now is the time to spread the word!

#2---If anyone is interested in participating on a National Committee or a National Commission, I must have your resume with all necessary information (name, Squadron, offices held at all levels, what commission/committee interested in, why do you want to participate), no later than March 30, 2024. This goes for members already serving on a National Committee/Commission

#3---Officer Certification. There are still some squadrons that have not certified their 2024 officers. handle this now and help the Detachment reach 100%. District and Division Commanders, get out the word now!

#4---Deatchment Convention. Newsletter will be going out at the end of May. If you want to submit an article, get it to me asap. Do not delay!

#5---Detachment Convention. Download a CSR form and get it filled out and send me a copy. IMPORTANT! Do not delay!

If there is anything I can do for anyone (member, Squadron, District, Division), please do not hesitate to call or email. The only phone number I have is 817-994-7394
