From the Desk of the Vice Commander, September 1, 2025
Fall is near but it is still hot here. Hope this year will be a lot safer with less fires and cooler weather.
The board has raised the annual dues to $35.00 and the life membership to $350.00.
Most of the items in the Store and on the web page are correct now. Prices have settled down for a while.
The VA is offering Veterans a fall alert free of any charges. It is called the ”Liberty Honor Alert.” Ask your doctor about this. These really work great. Several Veterans have told me about their experience with them. They have helped many people.
I am still wanting to know if any more of Atomic Vets are interested in a 4” coin head stone marker for Atomic veterans. A few of you have stated you would like to get one. I want to see if enough of you would like one so I can get an estimate on the price of them. Please let me know.
We have many members and spouses with health problems. We need to keep them in our prayers.
Membership: We have lost several members due to age. On the front of the newsletter, you will find the date your annual dues are due. Keith has set up an account to pay your dues online or to pay your dues and order from the store. If you want to pay online, call Keith. His phone is 612-232-6596.
I will repeat this: Keep working with your states and Federal Congress to get July 16th as Atomic Veterans Day annually. Also try to get a section of highway to become Atomic Veterans Memorial Highway.
State Commanders PLEASE, please make contact with your members and get members to get current in dues and information Just $35.00 will get them current. Please update your information. If your phone numbers are not current, e-mail or call with that information. When you send in dues let us know of any changes.
Thank you to the members that send in extra dues earmarked for helping someone who needs help with their dues and other support of NAAV.com, Please make checks out to NAAV, not to me. Let’s help update the database.
A big thank you to the state commanders who are getting info on members in their states and updating their info. Many of our life members have passed away and we were not notified.
Please stay safe and be careful!
Thank you,
Fred Schafer, National Vice Commander
