A. ARTICLE 280
1. EFFECTIVE 20 MAR 2009, NNN0FIN, DAVID IS APPOINTED AS THE
NORTHERN CALIFORNIA SATE DIRECTOR. THANK YOU DAVID FOR FILLING
THIS VITAL POSITION AND PROVIDING RELIEF TO NNN0UFV. I'M
CONFIDENT YOU WILL DO AN OUTSTANDING JOB.
2. SINCEREST THANKS TO NNN0UFV, DAVID FOR MANNING THE POST OF
NORTHERN CALIFORNIA STATE DIRECTOR WHEN NNN0OJC WAS IN MUCH
NEED OF RELIEF. WE APPRECIATE ALL THAT YOU DID DAVID.
3. NTP 8(D) (REF A) STATES THAT STATE DIRECTOR APPOINTMENTS ARE
2-YEAR APPOINTMENTS. MANY TIMES WE HAVE BEEN GUILTY OF STRETCHING
THESE LIMITS AND NOT RELIEVING INCUMBENTS IN A TIMELY MANNER. THAT
IS NOT GOOD FOR THE INDIVIDUAL OR THE ORGANIZATION. ANYONE HAVING A
BURNING DESIRE TO FILL ANY POSITION IN NMCM SHOULD MAKE THEIR
INTERESTS KNOWN TO THE AREA DIRECTOR. HE WILL BE HAPPY TO 
CONSIDER YOUR REQUEST AND YOU WILL PROBABLY HAVE A JOB.
4. WE ARE TRYING TO CLEAN OUT AND ORGANIZE THE AREA OFFICE IN
SAN DIEGO. WE HAVE A FAIR NUMBER OF LOOSE ODDS AND ENDS THAT WE
WOULD LIKE TO PLACE IN A NEEDY HOME. IN A SEPARATE MESSAGE I
WILL LIST THE EQUIPMENT AVAILABLE. THE ACTUAL OPERATIONAL
CONDITION OF THE EQUIPMENT IS UNKNOWN, SO IF YOU REQUEST IT AND
GET IT, YOU MAY HAVE TO REPAIR IT OR GET IT REPAIRED. WE WOULD
RATHER NOT HAVE TO TAKE THIS STUFF TO DRMO IN THE OFF CHANCE
THAT ONE OF YOU CAN MAKE USE OF IT.
5. PACIFIC AREA, PROUDLY SERVING THOSE WHO SERVE.
