Message from PonyTail
Thursday, September 19, 2024
Dear friends and family,
I can't express how happy I am to receive the notice that I am going to be inducted into the Indiana Military Veteran Hall of Fame. This is such a great honor to be nominated and even more wonderful to be selected.
I would like to extend an invite to each of you to attend this event unfortunately it is not a free event. This will be a banquet type of event which costs $55.00 per person to attend.
I have attached the letter that I received informing me that I will be inducted.
I would love to see each and everyone of you attend but I will understand if it is not possible for you to make it.
If you do want to attend please let me know for I would like to book the tables for my guests to try and have everyone sitting at the same tables. We can work out the details on the money at a later date. Looking forward to hearing from you.
God Bless each and everyone of you and wish you all the best.
PonyTail Paul
Proud 101st Veteran

Happy end of Summer and early Fall! Wow! Had a great year full of varied and intriguing speakers/topics. One speaker even drove all the way from Salt Lake City, Utah, to tell his story! Why do we do what we do...because YOU and WE have a thirst for knowledge about WWII/that era and conflicts from WWI through present day. To continue this great tradition (since 1987) it takes ALL of US to contribute. I mean belong/pay your dues/make donations of money and books for our drawing (or interesting militaria)/RSVP your dinner/come to the dinner meetings/invite and bring guests/volunteer to help/suggest topics or speakers/present yourself! All of US make this organization thrive and need more members to do so...if you enjoy the Roundtable, spread the word and personally RSVP and bring folks. I hear from persons across the US and Canada who are envious of our Roundtable and the stories we get to enjoy each month (except December). I hope and pray that YOU will have a great rest of this year and will be able to attend EVERY dinner meeting. Charles Allen Holt, D.O.
