Morning Team Texas. I have been informed that 2 members from Kerrville Squadron 208 are going through some tough health issues. First, our VE & E Chairman, Bret Kleepsies, had open heart surgery back on August 21st, and will not be able to attend our Fall DEC. He is at home and supposedly doing OK, but does not want to push his luck and recovery by attending the Fall DEC. Also, Tracy Woods, 21st District Commander and member of the Marketing Committee, is undergoing some severe infection in his right foot. He will be on antibiotics for the next 6-8 weeks to help combat this bacterial infection. Tracy has asked to please hold all phone calls and text messages during this time but will accept emails if anyone wants to send one. I do not want to go into further detail, but this is a serious bacterial infection. Please keep both members in your thoughts and prayers.

I have attached a couple of pictures of the events that went on last weekend at Fort Hood. This is the school supplies hand out as chaired by Roy Fowler. Take a good look at the first picture and see what the leaders of our parent organization were doing while Roy and his crew were working their tails off in the heat at Fort Hood. It was a tremendous day not only at Fort Hood, but also at Fort Bliss, which was held on Friday and ran by Chairman Ken Dorsett.
