22 SEPTEMBER BEHINDS, MILITARY AND VETERANS COMMISSION MEETING COME TO ORDER.
THAT'S HOW THE PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE

TODAY, WE CHOOSE TO HONOR OUR MILITARY AND VETERANS OR THE MEN AND WOMEN WHO GAVE OF THEMSELVES WHEN THEY WERE CALLED UPON TO SERVE AND PROTECT OUR COUNTRY.
WE ASK FATHER THAT YOU BLESSED THEM FOR THEIR UNSELFISH SERVICE AND FOR THE DEDICATION THEY HAVE SHOWN TO PRESERVE OUR FREEDOMS, OUR SAFETY AND OUR COUNTRY'S HERITAGE.
PLEASE FATHER BLESS THEM ABUNDANTLY FOR THE HARDSHIPS THEY FACE FOR THE SACRIFICES THAT YOU'VE MADE.

LORD, PLEASE GUIDE US IN OUR COMMISSIONS ENDEAVORS TODAY AND BLESS ALL THOSE MILITARY AND VETERANS WHOM WE HONOR WITH PEACE AND HAPPINESS.
MR. CROMER, ABSENT MR. GERARD HERE.
MR. LASTLY, MRS. FLOWY, MRS. SOLOMON ABSENT.
WE HAVE ENOUGH FOR A QUORUM AND UH, WE'LL MOVE FORWARD.
UM, LET'S LOOK AT APPROVAL OF THE MINUTES.
THE MINUTES WERE SENT OUT EARLIER BY ELECTRONIC MEANS EVERYONE HAD A OPPORTUNITY TO SEE IT.
IF THERE ARE NO COMMENTS, WE'LL HAVE A MINUTE STAN, AS IT IS WRITTEN.
ANY COMMENTS? NO COMMENTS IN THE MINUTES ARE APPROVED.
DO WE HAVE ANY CITIZENS COMMENTS? NO, IT SAYS SOME COMMENTS.
UM, FIRST THING, UH, FOR TONIGHT IS FOR THOSE OF US WHO WEREN'T AT THE BANQUET, UM, UH, THERE'S THINGS ON THE TABLE THERE FOR YOU THAT, UM, YOU WOULD RECEIVE HAD YOU BEEN TO BANK IT AND ONE-ON-ONES IT WASN'T THERE.
SO SOME OVER THERE FOR ME ALSO.
SO PICK IT UP ON YOUR WAY OUT AFTER THE MEETING, IF YOU WEREN'T AT THE BANQUET.
MOST OF US WERE I THINK BILL HASSAN AND TOM REPRESENTED US, UH, AT THE, AT THE BANQUET.
NOW TONIGHT'S MEETING WHAT PROBABLY COULD BE A SHORT MEETING.
IT JUST DEPENDS ON HOW WE DISCUSS THE THINGS THAT ON THE AGENDA.
AND, UM, THAT'S ONCE WE GET PAST, UH, PART EIGHT, UH, SO, UM, WE CAN CONTROL, UH, HOW LONG WERE YOU HERE? UM, UH, BY HAVING A CHRIS DISCUSSIONS OR, UM, UH, WE CAN DALLY, WHICHEVER COMES FIRST.
SO MOVING ON, UH, REIKI, WANT TO TALK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT A NEWSLETTER, JUST A LITTLE UPDATE.
I'LL GIVE YOU AN UPDATE ON THE NEWSLETTER.
HE STATED THE CONTRIBUTIONS BY COMMISSIONERS HAS BEEN A LITTLE SPARSE.
UH, THE CONTRIBUTIONS BY THE COMMISSIONERS HAS BEEN SPARSE.
I HAVE A DEADLINE THAT I CAN LIVE WITH OF 28 OCTOBER.
SO IF YOU HAVE A MODICUM OF NEWS THAT COULD BE PUBLISHED AND BE OF SOME VET BENEFIT TO VETERANS, IF THEY READ IT, PLEASE SEND IT TO ME BY EMAIL ASAP 28, OCTOBER 28 SEPTEMBER, BECAUSE THE END OF THE QUARTER IS 20 IS THE 30TH.
SO IT'S A QUARTERLY NEWSLETTER.
UH, I CAN PUT TOGETHER A, A SLIM NEWSLETTER FOR THE QUARTER, BUT I WOULD PREFER TO FLESH IT OUT A BIT.
WHAT KIND OF INFORMATION? I MEAN, I GUESS THERE IS A TARGET
[00:05:01]
KIND OF, UM, SOMEONE AS THE PATIENT YOU HAD.WELL, FIRST OF ALL, YOU CAN'T, UH, YOU CAN'T PUT OUT FOR A COUP, LIKE, LET'S SAY NEXT QUARTER, WE'RE TALKING ABOUT WHICH ONE OCTOBER THE 30 DECEMBER, YOU CAN'T PUT IN A NEWSLETTER, HEY, ON TWO NOVEMBER, THERE'S A BIG EVENT BECAUSE THE NEWSLETTER DOESN'T GO OUT UNTIL HE GOT INTO THE QUARTER.
SO YOU HAVE TO TARGET YOUR THINGS TO EITHER HAPPEN AFTER THE QUARTER OR JUST HAVE GENERIC BENEFIT.
FOR EXAMPLE, UH, THE ONE I CAN THINK OF JUST OFF THE TOP OF MY HEAD IS I THINK IT'S, THE VETERANS ARE PUTTING OUT, UH, REGULAR DONATIONS OF SOME KINDS LIKE COATS OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT.
ANYTHING, UH, THAT'S A BENEFIT OR, OR LIKE, UH, IT'S UNDER A, DID, YOU KNOW, TYPE OF THING.
YOU KNOW, DUDE, YOU KNOW, VETERANS THAT, UH, IF YOU WENT TO X OFFICE, YOU COULD GET Y BENEFIT, YOU KNOW, THAT KIND OF THING, SOMETHING SHORT TO THE POINT AND, UH, CONTAINING ALL THE INFORMATION.
UM, THE TELEPHONE NUMBERS, THE ADDRESSES, THE OFFICE HOURS.
IF YOU GOT UP POINTS OF CONTACT, IF YOU GOT THEM, JUST SOMETHING THAT WOULD BE A BENEFIT, A BENEFIT TO THE VETERAN.
AND, UM, YOU KNOW, IT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE AN ESSAY.
YOU SAID IT CAN'T LIKE WE CAN'T HIGHLIGHT THE NOVEMBER EVENT.
NO, BECAUSE I'M NOT PUBLISHING UNTIL THE END OF THE QUARTER.
SO YOU'RE SO, OH, SO THIS DOESN'T GO OUT UNTIL THE END OF NO, THIS ONE GOES OUT ON THE 30TH.
I WAS MAKING AN EXAMPLE OF LET'S TAKE, FOR EXAMPLE, TO ONE, OCTOBER TO 30 DECEMBER, THAT'S THE ONE WHERE YOU COULDN'T PUT IN A ONE NOVEMBER EVENT.
I'M MAYBE MISUNDERSTANDING IF IT GOES OUT BEFORE SUBMITTING AT THE END OF SEPTEMBER AND IT GOES OUT IN OCTOBER.
I'M USING IT AS AN EXAMPLE, THE NEXT NEWSLETTER, THE PERIOD OF WHICH IS FROM ONE NOVEMBER TO 30 DECEMBER AND WILL BE PUBLISHED ON 30 DECEMBER.
THAT'S WELL, ANYWAY, THAT'S A, IF IT DOESN'T COME OUT TILL THE END OF THE QUARTER AND IT'S, IT'S GOING TO BE OF NO BENEFIT.
NOW, IF IT'S A REPETITIVE THING THAT JUST HAPPENS TO START EARLY IN A QUARTER, SHORTER, PUT IT IN.
AND SO NOW ON THIS ONE, WE'RE READY TO PUBLISH.
WE CAN TALK ABOUT THE VETERANS DEDICATION AND THINGS LIKE THAT BECAUSE IT FALLS OVER AND THEY WERE LOOKING FORWARD TO IT NOW.
SO THAT FORWARD LOOKING TYPE THING OR A, YEAH, I MEAN, IT'S A, IT'S A JUDGMENT CALL.
I MEAN, WE'RE ALL, WE'RE ALL FAIRLY LITERATE PEOPLE.
WE READ, WE COME ACROSS THINGS NOW JUST KEEP HER HIGHLIGHTER OUT, YOU KNOW, OR SCISSORS OR WHATEVER IT IS.
IF YOU SEE SOMETHING GOOD AND SNAP IT UP AND JUST, UH, TAKE A PICTURE OF IT, YOU KNOW, OR COPY IT AND SEND IT TO ME.
THAT'S, THAT'S REALLY ALL I'M ASKING FOR, BUT I AM ASKING FOR SOME PARTICIPATION.
SO 28 SEPTEMBER, ANY INPUT YOU HAVE, UH, SENATOR RAY VIA EMAIL, UH, TO HIS ADDRESS.
OR FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS THAT RAY SENT OUT THAT'S.
IS THAT, UH, YOU DID ALL SEE THE INSTRUCTIONS, RIGHT? THE DISCIPLINE ON THE MINUTES ON HOW TO SUBMIT TO THE, OKAY.
UM, LAST WEEK, UH, THE LAST MEETING WE BROUGHT UP THE SUBJECT OF ONLY HAVING ONE VOTE AND THAT'S A VOICE VOTE AND NOT DOING THE, UH, NAME, A ROLL CALL VOTE.
UM, SINCE THEN, UH, I REALLY THOUGHT THAT, AND I THINK, UM, W WE NEED TO CONTINUE WITH BOTH TYPES OF VOTE.
DEPENDS ON WHAT THE VOTE IS, WHETHER IT'S A VOICE VOTE OR WHETHER IT'S A ROLL CALL VOTE.
AND, UM, SO I JUST LIKED TO DO THAT WITH UNANIMOUS CONSENT.
UH, I WOULD PRESS ON WITH THAT, ANY OBJECTIONS THEN.
THEN WE'LL MOVE FORWARD THAT, UH, OKAY.
THE REASON I PUT BRICK SALES ON HERE IS BECAUSE TONY SENT ME A NOTE FROM A LADY WHO WAS ASKING ABOUT THE BRIDGE SALE.
AND, UM, BASICALLY WE TOLD HER IT'S THAT DISCUSSION, BUT WE HAVEN'T MADE ANY DECISIONS JUST YET.
SO I DON'T KNOW HOW LONG WE'LL BE ABLE TO KICK THAT CAN DOWN THE ROAD, UH, TELLING PEOPLE THAT AT SOME POINT IN TIME, SOMEBODY IS GOING TO GIVE US
[00:10:01]
SOME GUIDANCE ON WHAT DO WE TELL THE PUBLIC, UM, ABOUT THE BURKE SALE.I KNOW, YOU KNOW, WHAT YOU'D LIKE TO DO THERE, UM, UH, YOU, BUT, UM, BUT WE NEED SOME GUIDANCE.
AND SO I LIKE TO PASS ON TO OUR LIAISON, IF YOU COULD ASK, UM, MR. UH, CALCIUM, IF HE COULD JUST GIVE US SOMETHING, BECAUSE PEOPLE ARE ASKING THESE QUESTIONS AND THEN NOT BEING SATISFIED AND SOME KIND OF WE'VE GOT ASTHMA AND A MAYOR HAD A REAL GOOD SPEECH, UH, WHEN BILL AND I SAID, OH, IF I DON'T REMEMBER, SO IT'S NOT HELPING ME ANY RIGHT NOW, UM, ON HOW A BRICK SALE WORKS.
DO YOU MIND IF I INTERJECT A LITTLE BIT ON THAT? MY UNDERSTANDING OF THAT IS AFTER THE MORAL IS COMPLETED, THERE'LL BE AN AREA SET UP FOR ACTUAL BRICK SKILLS OF A PART OF THAT BEING PART OF THE MEMORIAL AT THAT TIME, YOU KNOW, THE DEDICATION AND THE PROCESS FOR BEING THERE AND TO START THE BRICK SALE PROCESS WILL COME INTO PLACE.
CAN WE GET SOMETHING IN WRITING THAT WE CAN GIVE PEOPLE? BECAUSE WE TOLD THEM THAT THEY'RE GOING TO SAY WHAT? SO, UM, YOU KNOW, WE NEED SOMETHING I BELIEVE SOLID IN THAT I'M NOT PUTTING YOU ON THE SPOT THING, A CHINA TO PUT YOU ON THE SPOT.
UM, BUT WE CAN GET SOMETHING IN WRITING.
CAUSE YOU KNOW, TONY, YOU KNOW, PUT THE LADY ON, COME ON AND SAY, PUT IT ON.
BUT TONY REFERRED A LADY TO ME AND, UM, UH, UM, YOU KNOW, I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO SAY RIGHT NOW.
YOU DID, YOU HAVE SOMETHING? I DO AGREE WITH YOU JUST HAVING SOMETHING THAT MADE ME LIKE A POST TO THE CITY, FACE PAIN, FACEBOOK PAGE.
IT SAYS IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO PRE-ORDER OR IF YOU WOULD LIKE, IF YOU'RE INTERESTED IN THIS, HERE'S HOW TO GO ABOUT IT.
YOU CAN JUST POST THERE AND THEN IF YOU WANT TO PRINT IT OFF, YOU PRINT IT OFF FROM THERE INSTEAD OF IT'S CENTRAL LOCATION, I'D LIKE, I'D LIKE TO SECOND THAT THOUGHT BECAUSE THERE'S CERTAINLY A TERRIFIC, ACTUAL, EMOTIONAL BENEFIT TO HAVING A BRICK IN THE MONUMENT BECAUSE PEOPLE THAT VISIT WILL VISIT MORE OFTEN THAN SAY, JUST TO SAY, HEY, COME AND SEE.
LOOK, MY, MY GRANDFATHER'S BRICK IS OVER HERE.
MY FATHER'S BRICK IS OVER HERE.
AND THAT, THAT IN A WAY IT'S A KIND OF, UH, UH, UM, MAGNETIC OPPORTUNITY TO DRAW PEOPLE TO VISIT THE MEMORIAL.
BUT WE JUST NEED SOME GUIDANCE.
AND WE CAN'T GIVE IT UNTIL WE GET IT FROM THE POWERS THAT BE.
AND THAT'S THE ONLY REASON I BROUGHT UP BECAUSE PEOPLE ARE ASKING AND WE JUST REALLY NEED TO HAVE SOME FOR THEM.
LOOKING AT THE, UH, DEDICATION SERVICE FOR THE, THAT WE HAVE PREPLANNED FOR THE 6TH OF NOVEMBER, UH, FOR DEDICATION OF OTHER MONUMENT.
UM, I SENT OUT SOME SHEETS OF PROPOSED PROGRAM PROPOSE, UH, SCRIPT.
THE PROPOSED PROGRAM MAY BE OBE BECAUSE I LOOKED AT THAT AS SOMETHING THAT WE WOULD GIVE PEOPLE WHO WERE THERE, YOU KNOW, GIVE, BUT WE DON'T HAVE A HEAD COUNT.
SO I DON'T KNOW HOW MANY OF THOSE WE'D HAVE TO PRINT, UH, YOU KNOW, BEFORE THE PEOPLE GOT THERE.
SO DO WE WANT TO PRINT PROGRAMS OR NOT? I GUESS THIS IS A QUESTION THAT MIGHT BE AT HAND AND ANY COMMENTS ON THAT I'D SHOW THAT YOU'RE PROBABLY NOT GOING TO LEAD MORE THAN A HUNDRED AND YOU KNOW, BASED ON THE SHOW UP THAT WE'VE HAD BEEN PASSED TERM OR USED OUT THERE.
NOW HERE'S THE DIFFERENCE THIS TIME THE MAYOR SEND OUT SOME STUFF TO OTHER MAYORS AND, UH, I SENT YOU GUYS A COPY OF THIS, THAT THE MAYOR IS GOING TO SEND OUT TO OTHER MAYORS AND TOWNSHIP TRUSTEES AND OTHER GOVERNMENT LEADERS.
SO THAT'S SOMETHING WE NEED TO HAVE WITH OUR REGULAR REGULAR MEETING.
AND THEN, UH, JAMIE HAD MENTIONED SENDING THE THING THAT I HAD BROUGHT UP, UH, OUT TO LOCAL VETERANS ORGANIZATIONS LIKE AMERICAN LEGION, UH, VFW AND VIETNAM, VETS AND ASSORT.
SO WE ACTUALLY GIVEN OUT INVITES TO THIS ONE WHERE IT WAS BEFORE WE JUST SAID, HEY, WE'RE HAVING THIS SHOW UP IF YOU LIKE, BUT THAT'S WHEN WE ACTUALLY INVITING PEOPLE.
SO YOU STILL THINK IT'D BE, UH, LESS THAN A HUNDRED OR AROUND A HUNDRED PUT THAT CAVEAT.
[00:15:01]
BUT YOU GOT ME THINKING ABOUT THE AFTEREFFECT OF A PROGRAM, SOMEBODY A MEMENTO OF THE ACTUAL MEMORIAL EVENT.THEY MAY TAKE IT BACK TO THEIR ORGANIZATION AND IN FACT, GARNER MORE SUPPORT AT THEIR, AT THEIR MEETINGS AND THE LIKE GOOD POINT, GOOD POINT.
ALL WE'D HAVE TO DO IS TAKE THIS PICTURE HERE FOR THE FRONT, PUT THAT, PUT THIS ON AND WITH IT, THERE'S YOUR PROGRAM.
THIS IS THE WAY I JUST SWITCHED THAT, BUT DONE ON THE FRONT, ON THE FRONT OF HIM WITH THE CAVEAT THAT I THINK THAT THERE OUGHT TO BE A LITTLE BIT MORE UBER, A LANGUAGE IN THE PROGRAM ITSELF.
WELL, SOME OF THEM, SOME OF THE STUFF IN HERE IS UNSETTLED YET ALSO THERE'S, UH, UH, EITHER OR ON THE BANDS OF EITHER OR ON A STREET CORNER TO WHERE YOU GOT TO GET THOSE NAILED DOWN BEFORE WE CAN MAKE A PROGRAM, AS SOON AS THAT'S DONE WELL, I'LL EVEN VOLUNTEER.
AS SOON AS THAT'S DONE, I'LL PRINT THE PROGRAM MYSELF AT HOME OR AT MY EXPENSE, I'LL DO THE FIRST HUNDRED.
WHEN WE'RE TALKING ABOUT A PROGRAM, YOU, MY MIND, I'M SEEING WHAT YOU JUST SAID IN AGENDA, BUT I'LL ALSO SEE A, KIND OF A STORY ON THE OTHER SIDE, IF YOU WILL, THAT TALKS ABOUT THE MEMORIAL AND YOU KNOW, WHAT LED TO IT AND WHY IT'S THERE JUST A STORY THAT PEOPLE, IF PEOPLE ARE GOING TO GO BACK TO THEIR ORGANIZATIONS AND TALK ABOUT IT, THEY'D HAVE A SCRIPT, SO TO SPEAK, RIGHT? WE DON'T, WE COULD COME UP WITH SOME APPROPRIATE VERBIAGE AND PUT IT ON THE SAME PAGE WITH THIS PICTURE.
AND SO THIS VERBIAGE UP HERE, WE PUT A STORY UP THERE, WHATEVER, YOU KNOW, UH, BLEND OVER THIS PICTURE AND IT WOULD BE, I THINK THAT'D BE GOOD TO GO.
NOW ON THE MEMORIAL ITSELF, IS THERE A STORY ABOUT HOW IT CAME ABOUT? UM, YEAH.
WELL, PART OF IT, PART OF WHAT SHOULD GO ON NURSE DESIGN, WHAT EACH FLIGHT IS FOR, UM, UH, WHAT THE, UH, OBLATES, UH, NEW DOMAIN ON ONE PAGE, WOULD YOU SAY? OH, YELLOW.
I THINK IT DEFINITELY NEEDS TO INCLUDE THE BIRTH OF THIS WHOLE THING.
YOU KNOW, WHY THIS IS ALL HAPPENING IS, IS IF YOU'RE GOING TO PUT SOMETHING AS IMPORTANT AS THIS ON A PROGRAM FOR DISTRIBUTION, YOU CERTAINLY NEED TO SAY SOMETHING ABOUT HOW THE CITY CAME UP WITH THE IDEA OF A COMMISSION TO START WITH, AND THEN WHAT THE COMMISSION LED LED TO DISTALLY THIS, YOU KNOW, AND SO FORTH.
AND IT, IN OTHER WORDS, TO, UH, UH, LET THE PUBLIC KNOW THAT WE HAD A REAL INTEREST IN THE VETERANS AND WE TOOK ALL THESE ACTIONS TO GET WHERE WE ARE WITH THE MEMORIAL ORDER TO MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE GIVING GOOD PRODUCE TO THE WAS THE THIRD IN THE FIRST PLACE.
SO IT SOUNDS LIKE WHOLE BUNCH OF DRAFTS ARE GOING TO BE DONE.
LET ME TAKE A HACK AT THAT FIRST, IF YOU DON'T MIND, I'LL GO AHEAD AND WRITE UP A, UH, MAYBE A LITTLE BIT OF A STORY TO IT.
AND THEN YOU GUYS CAN ADD THE DETAILS IN AS THEY MAKE SENSE OR CORRECT ANYTHING THAT I GOT WRONG.
UM, ARE YOU GOING TO WORK WITH MR. AUTO CAUSE I'M SURE YOU WERE PART OF THE ORIGINAL.
BUT NOW THEY'RE NOT SUSPENSION AND SUSPENSION.
CAUSE YOU KNOW, WE RUSHING TOWARDS THE SIX REAL FAST AND WE WERE OKAY NOW DON'T GET IT.
THAT'S GOOD FOR YOU IF YOU DON'T TELL HER, BUT CAN I ASK YOU QUESTIONS SPECIFICALLY? ALL RIGHT.
SO IN TERMS OF, UH, INDIVIDUALS PRESENT AT THESE CEREMONY, WE'RE NOT TALKING ABOUT THE THURSDAY NIGHT, BUT THE SATURDAY MORNING, UM, THE TWO LOCAL ONES THAT, THAT I INITIALLY THOUGHT, UM, THAT I HAVE ACCESS TO, OR, OR, UH, FLIPS MANY GENERAL BOARD WHO IS STILL VERY ACTIVE WITH THE VETERAN COMMUNITY IS ONE OF THE PEOPLE ON THE USO HAS WIDE HUGE VOLUNTEER OVER THE USO.
I WAS THINKING HIM OR CASSIE BARLOW WHO THE FORMER WING COMMANDER, SHE ALSO WAS JUST PUTTING INTO, I MEAN, SHE'S ONE OF THE HALL OF FAMERS.
AND, UM, UH, SHE JUST GOT NOMINATED INTO THE GREEN COUNTY WOMEN'S HALL OF FAME OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT.
ALSO HUGE THAT VOICE IN OUR COMMUNITY.
UM, AND THEN AS ACTIVE DUTY, WE WERE LOOKING AT TRYING TO GET THE COMMAND SHEET
[00:20:01]
FROM OVER AT THE WING.AND THAT PROVIDES A COUPLE OF DIFFERENT LEADERSHIPS, ACTIVE DUTY RETIREE, VETERAN ENGAGED.
IS THAT SOMETHING YOU WOULD BE INTERESTED IN? WHICH ONE WOULD YOU RATHER HAVE IN TERMS OF HOW INVITE BOTH, BUT IF ONE OF THEM WAS GOING TO BE YOUR KEY SPEAKER, WHO WOULD YOU WANT FOR YOUR WELL, YOU KNOW, I'M LOOKING BIG AND I'M GOING TO GO HIGH.
AND SO I LOOK AT JEROME MOORE, UH, YOU KNOW, I KNOW THERE ARE MORE DON'T WANT, I'VE HAD MORE RUN INS THAN, BUT I'LL GO WITH, OH, IT WAS FUN.
UM, DO WANT TO CHANGE THAT FROM THE FMC TO THE NEW CONCEPT CENTER, Y'ALL PUT OUT THAT EFC.
SO JUST THINK ABOUT, OKAY, HOW ABOUT PREJUDICE ON THE SIDE OF CURDLE BARLOW? I'VE HAD LONG DEALINGS WITH HER AND SHE ALWAYS PRESENTS SUPERBLY AND SHE SEEMS TO REPRESENT, YOU KNOW, THE MILITARY AND EVERYTHING ELSE AROUND HER.
UM, WELL HERE'S WHAT WE CAN DO.
HERE'S OUR FIRST, UM, VOICEMAIL, OR WE CAN INVITE BOTH OF THEM, HAVE ONE OF THEM SPECIFICALLY REPRESENTING FEMALE VETERANS.
I MEAN, ACTUALLY GIVE A VOICE AND SHE'S GOT THE BOOK OUT.
I MEAN, IT'S RIGHT UP HER ALLEY.
UM, YOU MIGHT WANT TO PUT THE BRAKE ON THAT UNTIL YOU FIND OUT JUST EXACTLY HOW LONG THEY AGENDA WILL BE.
YOU KNOW, WE MAY WIND UP SAYING, OH, HERE'S ANOTHER SPEECH.
NOW WE CAN, WE'VE GOT TO FIND OUT, YOU KNOW, THE, UH, AGENDAS HAVE A LIFE OF THEIR OWN.
AND WHEN PEOPLE START STABBING THEIR FEET AND LOOKING AND LOOKING AROUND AND SOMETHING ELSE YOU DON'T WANT THAT YOU WANT TO WANT TO HAVE A HARD CAPTURE OF TO GET ATTENTION ALL THE WAY THROUGH EACH ONE OF THESE INDIVIDUALS WILL GET 10 MINUTES.
AND I'M PRETTY SURE THEY'VE BEEN AROUND ENOUGH TO KNOW, EXCUSE ME.
WELL, IT WAS LIKE THE FIRST ONE SHE'S RIGHT.
I WAS ACTUALLY THINKING LIKE A FIVE MINUTES OF THAT SOUNDS ABOUT RIGHT.
FOR A LOT OF THESE, WHAT WE'VE BEEN DOING NOW, HERE'S THE CHALLENGE TO THIS.
THIS IS ALL PREDICATED ON HOGAN.
UM, AND SO WE HAVE A LOT OF THE OTHER THINGS WE DO HAVE A REQUEST IN FOR THE BAND.
YOU KNOW, WE DO HAVE A REQUEST IN FOR THE HONOR OF, I JUST NEED TO GIVE THEM THE DETAILS, BUT WE NEED TO BE ABLE TO SHIP AT ANY GIVEN MOMENT BECAUSE THEY MAY PULL OUT BECAUSE OF COVID AND THEY'RE NOT, THEY'RE RESTRICTED FROM DOING PUBLIC EVENTS.
WE NEED A PLAN B PLAN B IS I HAVE STUFF ON LIKE THEM OR I'M I'M THINKING OF, UH, WE HAD TALKED ABOUT POSSIBLY, UH, WAITING FOR, UM, THE BAND FOR THE MUSICAL PART AND THE YOUNG MARINES AND WAYNE HIGH SCHOOL ROTC TO DO THE MILITARY PART.
BUT, UH, UM, IF THE, IF YOU CAN'T GET THE HONOR GUARD, BUT SOMEBODY TOLD ME THAT, UM, BE VERY SUSPICIOUS OF THE HONOR GUARD.
I DID DECIDE PAID AS A YOUNG MARINE PUBLIC RELATIONS OFFICER.
I'VE MADE REQUESTS TO HAVE TO REQUEST AFTER REQUEST EVERY, EVERY SINGLE ONE WAS EITHER OUTRIGHT DENIED OR IT WAS CANCELED AT THE LAST MINUTE.
I'M JUST SAYING I'VE HAD A POOR EXPERIENCE WITH THEM BECAUSE WHAT HAPPENS IS WHAT ALWAYS HAPPENED.
AND I FOUND OUT LATER WAS, WELL, SOME SAID YOU'RE OVER HERE.
AND THAT'S THE HONOR GUARD IS WHAT I WAS REALLY LOOKING AT.
AND, UM, SO, UM, WE NEED TO PLANT ME IN LIKE THE FALL BACK IF WE CAN WITH, UM, YOUNG MARINES.
AND WHEN YOU IN HIGH SCHOOL ROTC, UH, JOHN, UH, YOU STILL HAVE ANY INFLUENCE OVER, UH
WELL, I MEAN, THAT'S A, I MEAN, LET'S USE THE POWER OF THE SIGNIFICANCE OF THIS EVENT THOUGH.
AND I THINK THAT IF WE TALK WITH TREE FORKLIFT, UH, THAT'D BE THE ENTRY POINT.
WELL, WE CAN TALK LATER THAT'S OKAY.
SO WE'RE LOOKING AT PLAN A TO FLIGHT AND HONOR GOD.
[00:25:02]
IN PLAN V IS LOOKING AT WAYNE.NOW, IF THEY DON'T PULL OUT, THEN HOW DO WE POSITION WAYNE TO BE PREPARED TO NOT DO ANYTHING? YEAH.
I'M GOING TO PUT UP WITH THAT SECOND.
HE ASKED FOR DRILLS A LITTLE PROMPT.
I MEAN, THAT'S JUST MY OPINION, YOU KNOW, YOU PICK ONE, YOU GO WITH, AND THEN YOU AGREE PLAN B THAT'S.
I MEAN, LIKE I SAID, YOU CAN'T PLAN ON ASKING GIRL A CAUSE OR, OR GENTLEMEN A, YOU KNOW, AND THEN NOT, YOU KNOW, I THINK AS A GROUP, YOU'RE GONNA NEED TO DECIDE IF WE'RE GOING WITH THIS.
IF NOT, THEN WE'RE DOING THIS AND THAT'S WHAT WE'RE GONNA DO WITH PLAN B IS A SOLID PLAN.
IT'S NOT FALLOUT IF THAT MAKES SENSE.
MAYBE ONE PLAY TAPS AND THE OTHER BAND PLAYS THE MARCHES.
WELL, IT LIKE, SOMEBODY'S GOING TO SHOW UP AND THEN YEAH.
UM, AND THERE'S REALLY THE SINGLE HOLE.
WELL, AND THE BAND ALSO THE BAND, THE FLIGHT HUB, THEY HAVE THE SAME REPUTATION AS THE HONOR GUARD.
IT'S A LITTLE UPSET OVER THERE.
WAIT, WAIT, WHAT YOUNG MARINES HAVE THE SINGLE BUREAU NORMALLY? WELL, IF YOU LOOK ON MY THING HERE, I SHOW A NEW NINGALOO.
UM, UH, WHAT AM I GOING TO SHOW THE PEOPLE, BUT LIKE RECORDED? YEAH.
AND THE COMMITMENT LEVEL DEPENDS UPON THE CREDIBILITY OF THE PEOPLE WE'RE DEALING WITH.
I THINK THAT WAYNE HIGH SCHOOL, IN TERMS OF CHIEF OR COOK WOULD SAY, YES, WE WILL, WE CAN PRETTY MUCH COUNT ON THE FACT THAT HE WILL BE THERE.
AND, UH, WE GOT A PRETTY GOOD CHANCE OF THE YOUNG MARINES FOR BEING THERE.
AND SO OTHER, OTHER THAN THOSE TWO ENTITIES ABOUT THE BANDS AND STUFF, I'M NOT SPEAKING SEPARATELY, IS THERE A BILL CROMER SAID THAT THEY WERE PRETTY SURE THAT THEY COULD WORK THAT OUT IF WE REALLY NEEDED IT? UM, SO MY, MY GOING IN POSITION IS I'D LOVE TO HAVE THE BENEFIT OF LIGHT AND THAT'S WHAT I REALLY WANT.
BUT MAN, I HATE TO BE LEFT STANDING OUT NICOLE.
AND THEN, UH, YOU KNOW, FOR SOME REASON THEY HAVE TO NOT BE ABLE TO, FIRST OF ALL, THEY HAVEN'T EVEN AGREED TO DO IT YET.
HOW LONG DO WE KNOW WHEN THEY MIGHT REPLY TO IT? THEY DO REPLY TO IT.
WE'RE STILL GONNA HAVE THE SAME CONSIDERATIONS.
SO THE REQUEST IS IN, UM, I DID SPEAK WITH THE OPERATIONS, UM, GENTLEMEN, UM, YESTERDAY.
UM, SO TRYING TO, TRYING TO GIVE YOU INFORMATION WITHOUT RELEASING ANYTHING SPECIFIC.
UM, SO HE IS WORKING THE DETAILS.
HE UNDERSTANDS THAT THIS IS A, THIS IS OUR DEDICATION.
SO HE REALLY WANTS TO TRY AND SUPPORT IT.
SO IF THAT'S WHAT HE'S TRYING TO FIGURE OUT NOW IS HOW TO DO THAT.
UM, AND I'M HOPING WE WILL KNOW BY KNOW BY MONDAY, AT LEAST.
AND IF I DON'T HEAR ANYTHING BY MONDAY, THEN I'LL GIVE HIM A CALL.
AGAIN, HE'S A PERSONAL FRIEND OF MINE.
WE WEREN'T IN THE SAME CAREER FIELD, SOME LIGHTS, SO THREE YEARS.
SO IN WHAT THE HONOR GUARD AS WELL, THE COMMUNITY RELATIONS, UM, COMMUNITY OUTREACH, I'M GONNA CALL HER CHIEF REACHED OUT TO ME THIS WEEK.
AND SO I PUT DAN PUT, DANA'S PUT DANA IN CONTACT WITH HER AND THEY SPECIFICALLY ASKED IF WE RECEIVED ANYTHING, IF HUBER HEIGHTS WAS DOING, IF THEIR MEMORIAL WAS GOING TO BE COMPLETE.
AND IF THERE WAS GOING TO BE A REQUEST FOR A SPEAKER OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT, WE HAVE THE CONVERSATION.
AND WE SAID, YES, WE'LL SUBMIT SOMETHING FOR THE HONOR GUARD AS WELL AS POTENTIALLY A SPEAKER.
SO SHE'S IN THERE AND SHE LIVES IN HUBRIS.
SO, AND THAT'S ACTUALLY PART OF THE FOLLOW ON QUESTION WHEN WE WERE ASKING FOR, FOR AN ACTIVE DUTY, NEVER TO COME FROM THE BASE TO REPRESENT WHEN YOU DO HAVE TWO DIFFERENT EVENTS.
AND OUR SECOND IS LATER IN THE AFTERNOON, WHICH IS A LITTLE BIT DIFFERENT THAN A LOT OF OUR COMMUNITY, UM, IS, DO, DO WE PUT IT IN AN EVENT, PUT, DO WE PUT IN THE REQUEST AND TRY TO GET SOMEONE TO THAT EVENT AS WELL? MAYBE SEE IF WE CAN GET ONE, GET OUR WING COMMANDER OUT, OR ONE OF THE COMMANDERS OUT FOR THE THURSDAY AFTERNOON EVENTS,
[00:30:05]
OR DO WE JUST TRY TO GET ANYBODY AND EVERYBODY OUT TO SATURDAY, KNOWING THAT WE MAY OR MAY NOT BE ABLE TO GET AS MANY PEOPLE OUT ON THURSDAY? UM, NOW I WOULDN'T, IF WE COULD, UH, DESIGNATE AN INDIVIDUAL FOR THE 11TH, UM, AND THAT INDIVIDUAL WILL COME TALK TO WHO SHOWS OF SERVICE, WE'LL COME TALK TO WHOEVER SHOWS UP AT THE VETERAN'S MEETING.UM, NOT THAT WE SPIKED IN THEM ANYTHING, BUT, UM, YOU KNOW, UM, YOU KNOW, THAT'S WHAT WE DO OUR VETERANS IS WE JUST SET IT UP AND PEOPLE SHOW AND SO FAR HAS BEEN PRETTY GOOD REPRESENTATION.
DANIEL IS JUST NEED SOMEONE AND COMPLETED TOMORROW.
THOSE DETAILS SPECIFICALLY, UH, NANCY, DID YOU WANT TO SAY SOMETHING? DID YOU LOOK LIKE I DID WANT TO MAKE A SUGGESTION.
UH, YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT THE DEDICATION CEREMONY AND USING, UM, WELL, THE, UH, NINE 11 USING CASSIE BARLOW, A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE GOING TO BE ALREADY COMMITTED TO DIFFERENT NINE 11 EVENTS.
I DON'T KNOW ABOUT KATHY, BUT I WAS SHOWING HER, UH, THE, THE CURRENT CONSTRUCTION ON THE, UM, ON THE MEMORIAL.
AND SHE'S JUST, SHE'S JUST BLOWN OUT OF THE WATER.
SO IF SHE'S NOT AVAILABLE ON THE 11TH, IF MAYBE SHE WOULD COME AND, AND SUPPORT US ON THE DEDICATION, I THINK SHE WOULD BE REALLY HONORED TO DO THAT.
CASSIE BARLOW, YOU KNOW, WE'RE LOOKING AT HER IN GENERAL MORE, RIGHT.
IT WAS GOING TO TRY AND GET THEM OUT TO COME OUT TO THE MEMORIAL, THE PRIVATE I WAS SHARING WITH GENERAL MOORE.
SHE, SHE ACTUALLY WOULD BE A GREAT REPRESENTATION OF ABC TO THE DEDICATION AND SACRIFICE OF, OF LIMIT.
DO YOU KNOW IF SHE'S GOING TO BE AVAILABLE? SHE WOULD BE PERFECT.
I WAS ASKING THE, THE SAME THING, CAUSE I DIDN'T WANT TO DO EXACTLY WHAT MIKE WAS SAYING.
I DIDN'T WANT TO ASK THREE PEOPLE TO THE PROM.
WELL, I DON'T KNOW WHY YOU COULDN'T DO BOTH, ACTUALLY.
I KNOW, BUT I DIDN'T WANT TO MAKE THAT DECISION WITHOUT HAVING THE CONVERSATION.
I DON'T SEE AN ISSUE WITH, TO SPEAK, BUT I ONLY, I ONLY BRING IT UP BECAUSE I KNOW A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE COMMITTED FOR NINE 11 AND, AND IF SHE IS COMMITTED, UM, THEN, THEN I THINK IT WOULD BE A REAL HONOR TO US TO HAVE HER COME AND PARTICIPATE IN THE DEDICATION.
AND I THINK SHE WOULD LIKE TO DO THAT.
AND JOE MOORE, AND IF JOE MOORE CAN'T MAKE IT, THEN WE'LL GO WITH JUST HER.
AS AMERICAN SPEAKER, THIS ONE, UM, WELL HE ALWAYS GETS THE MAYOR MORE THAN TWO SPEAKERS.
WELL, THE MAYOR IS, I DON'T CONSIDER HIM AS A GUEST SPEAKER.
THE MAYOR SPEAKS PRETTY MUCH, UH, WHOEVER THE MAYOR IS SPEAKS TO EVERY ONE OF THESE EVENTS.
IT'S JUST THE WAY IT IS KIND OF ROLL TO GET UP AND SAY THINGS LIKE, BUT IT SHOULD BE KEPT TWO MINUTES UNDER THREE MINUTES, WAITING SECTION MAY READ MOST AT THE CPP SHOWS UP, BUT I'D SAY HE'S NOT A GUEST SPEAKER THOUGH.
HE'S JUST THE MAYOR OR SHE, OR WHOEVER IT IS.
THE MAYOR IS GOING TO SEE A FEW WORDS AND THAT'S IT.
BUT THE OTHER TWO, UH, ACTUAL GUEST SPEAKERS, UH, WHICH, UM, YOU KNOW, MAKES THEM A LITTLE BIT DIFFERENT.
IF YOU LOOK AT THE, UM, DESCRIPT
WE CAN MAKE IT, BALANCE IT OUT TO WHERE, UM, UH, YOU KNOW, WE GET THROUGH ABOUT 12 O'CLOCK AND THE MAYOR.
HE NEVER SAID THE MAYOR, WE HAVE THE CURRENT MAYOR, UH, NEVER GOES PAST A MINUTE OR SO ANYWAY.
SO IT, IT REALLY, I THINK WE, WITHIN THE TIME ZONE AND WHAT A FOOT, THE PROGRAM, UM, COMMENT, I JUST WANT TO INJECT ONE WORD UNTIL BOTH OF THESE WITH, BECAUSE OF THEIR COMPLEXITY IS THE WORD REORDER.
WELL, WE HAVE KEYNOTE SPEAKERS ON IT THAT WE HEARD IS THE YOUNG MARINES AND WAYNE AND SO FORTH.
UM, I DON'T KNOW ABOUT TO BE ON A FLIGHT.
THEY, IF WE PROFESSIONALS JUST KNOW THAT THEM KNOW WHERE THEY ARE AND WHAT TIME AND WELL, WE DO HAVE A PLAN FOR A YOUNG MARINE REHEARSAL ALREADY AND IT'S TO
[00:35:01]
COME AN HOUR, AN HOUR AND A HALF EARLY AND DO PLENTY OF REHEARSALS OFF TO THE SIDE, YOU KNOW? SO THAT'S USUALLY OUR PLAN FOR REHEARSAL.UM, MAINLY DUE TO THE DIFFICULTIES OF GETTING VOLUNTEER PARENTS AND CHILDREN TO, YOU KNOW, ARRIVE.
SO, UH, WE COULD, WE, THE YOUNG MARINES, OTHER HAT, OKAY.
WE COULD, WE COULD DO IT THAT WAY, BUT I DON'T KNOW IF Y'ALL, IF THE REST OF YOU FEEL UNCOMFORTABLE WITH, WITH THE REST OF THE EVENTS TO DO A SEPARATE REHEARSAL OR JUST LIKE THAT.
I THINK WE COULD DO A, I THINK YOU COULD DO A SEPARATE REHEARSAL BECAUSE MOST OF THE, YOU GUYS ARE DOING MOST OF THE THINGS LIKE RAISING THE FLAG AND THE FIRING, UH, UM, WELL, I DON'T KNOW.
WE DON'T, I DON'T HAVE A SPECIFIC REQUEST FOR YOU.
I'M NOT TRYING TO BE A WEIRDO, BUT I NEED TO REQUEST WHAT IS IT EXACTLY DO YOU WANT? AND IT HAS TO DO WHAT I'M THINKING YOU WANT IS ASSUMING THAT THE, UH, ROTC WILL BE THERE, THAT THEY WILL DO THE COLOR GUARD AND STEP FORWARD FOR THE RACING OF THE COLORS OR YOU THERE'S THERE'S NO, REESE IS THERE PER SE.
SO IF THAT'S THE CASE, THAT'S NOT A PROBLEM.
THEN THE OTHER, THE ONLY OTHER THING WE COULD OFFER AS THE BUGLER AND WE'RE GOING TO DO TASKS, WE'VE GOT IT.
I'M AT THE WRONG MEETING FOR A SECOND.
SO I THINK WE'RE GETTING TOO, I JUST CONCENTRATE ON THE FIRST, BEFORE.
I'M SAYING WE NEED THAT'S RIGHT.
ANYWAY, I'M GETTING MIXED UP BECAUSE WHAT YOU'RE GOING TO DO FOR THE TWO OF THEM, THEN THE OTHER THING IS THE FIRING PARTY.
IF YOU'RE GOING TO WANT A FIRING PARTY, RIGHT.
I'M GOING TO ASK THAT QUESTION.
I, ONCE HERE, I CAN GO TO SIX, SIX, NOVEMBER, SIX NOVEMBER.
I SEE THAT THE BAND IS ON THERE AND YOU'VE GOT THEM.
WE'VE REQUESTED THEM PLAYING THREE TIMES.
UM, IN FACT, I THINK IN TERMS OF THE COMMUNITY, YOU'VE PROBABLY RATHER HEAR ONE OF OUR SPEAKERS, ESPECIALLY IF IT'S ONE OF OUR, OUR BEST MILITARY LEADERS, VETERANS, WHATEVER.
UM, SO I WOULD PROBABLY START THEM OFF.
AND THEN WITH THE, YOU KNOW, WHATEVER IT IS THAT THEY SULLY PLAY.
UM, BUT I ALSO WOULD MINIMIZE THAT BECAUSE IF THEY ARE A CALLBACK BECAUSE OF MISSION OR BECAUSE OF COVID, IT'S NOT AS MUCH OF A DETRIMENT TO THE PROGRAM, IT DOESN'T THROW THE PROGRAM KIND OF RIPPED THEM OFF IF WE HAVE TO DO SOMETHING LAST MINUTE.
SO YOU'RE SAYING AIR FORCE, BAND IN FLIGHT, TWO SONGS AT THE MOST.
UM, NOW THAT DOESN'T MEAN THAT THEY CAN'T BE PLAYING, AS PEOPLE ARE COMING OUT AND KIND OF CREATING AN ATMOSPHERE.
THAT'S WHAT THEY DO WITH A LOT OF OUR EVENTS.
UM, IT'S, IT'S GOT TO COME UP BECAUSE HE'S, THAT'S HIS PEOPLE.
SO THE REQUESTS THAT I PUT IN AND I TALKED TO GREG, WAS TO DO, TO PLAY ALL SONGS FOR ALL SERVICE SONGS.
CAUSE THAT'S WHAT YOU ALL AGREED ON LAST TIME.
RIGHT? AND THE STAR SPANGLED BANNER, WELL, YOU'RE THE STAR SPANGLED BANNER.
AND THEN 1, 2, 3, THERE WERE THREE TIMES ON THERE, BUT IF YOU NARROW IT DOWN TO TWO, THOSE TWO WOULD WORK.
I MEAN, THEY'RE, THEY'RE ADULTS WITH MASTER'S DEGREE SO THEY CAN, THEY CAN DO IT AND THEY PLAY FOR HOURS OR AT LEAST AN HOUR.
UM, SO THE QUESTION WOULD BE JUST LET US KNOW WHAT EXACTLY YOU WANT.
AND THEN WE CAN COME BACK AND TELL YOU WHAT WE CAN, WHAT THEY CAN AND CAN'T DO.
ASK FOR THIS MUCH AND THEY CAN NARROW IT DOWN.
WELL, I'M LOOKING AT IT RIGHT NOW.
IT'S LIKE YOU SAID, AN ASTRO ANTHEM, UH, A MUSICAL SELECTION AND THEN, UH, KICK US OFF AND THEN, UH, ONE AT THE END, AT THIS POINT, AND THAT GIVES US MORE TIME BACK AND ALLOWS FOR A LITTLE BIT MORE FLEXIBILITY IN THE YUP.
WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT MUSICAL SELECTION? UM, I DON'T KNOW.
I JUST PUT THAT IN AS A PLACE HOLDER.
UM, BECAUSE IT'S NEVER GOING TO BEAUTIFUL OR SOMETHING, 'CAUSE YOU LET US KNOW, JUST LET, LET DANA KNOW WHAT SPECIFIC SONG TO, CAUSE IT'S NOT, IT'S NOT THE ROCK BAND OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT, THAT YOU'RE GETTING.
SO, UM, SO, UM, YEAH, AMERICA BEAUTIFUL OR A GOD BLESS AMERICA OR SOMETHING
[00:40:01]
TO DO WITH.SO YOU WANT A SINGER TO SING THAT AS WELL AS THE BAND TO PLAY THAT AND THE FIVE SERVICE SONGS AND THE STAR SPANGLED BANNER, WE WOULD PROBABLY BENEFIT FROM YOUR EXPERIENCE OR IF HE WAS SUGGESTING AN ARRAY THAT WOULD PROBABLY BE OKAY.
I WOULD DO THE STAR SPANGLED BANNER AND THE FIVE SERVICE SONGS.
UM, AND THEN, UM, PROBABLY LEAVE IT AT THAT BECAUSE YOU'VE GOT WHAT TWO SPEAKERS, SO HAVE HAD THEM DO THOSE TWO.
I HAVE FIVE SERVICE BOMBS WHILE THEY'RE DOING THE RIBBON ACTUALLY WOULD BE KIND OF APPROPRIATE BECAUSE YOU'RE NOT SPEAKING DURING THE RIBBON CUTTING.
UM, YOU KNOW, IT'S KIND OF, WE'RE MAKING SAUSAGE HERE AND UH, I DON'T KNOW.
I SAY THIS, WE CAN THINK OF IT.
WE COULD FIGURE THAT ONE OUT FOR YOU GUYS.
IT SEEMS LIKE WHAT I NEED TO HAVE SOMEBODY FIGURE IT OUT AND SEND IT TO US AND HAD US LOOK AT IT AND COMMENT ON IT AND WORK REAL QUICK.
AND UM, BY THE TIME WE MEET AND WE MIGHT HAVE TO, I WANT TO CALL A SPECIAL SESSION, BUT UM, SOME KIND OF WAY WE'VE GOT TO COMMUNICATE AND EVERYBODY GET ON THE SAME SHEET OF MUSIC.
BY THE TIME WE HIT THE 25TH, WHICH IS OCTOBER 25TH IS OUR NEXT MEETING.
AND I WOULDN'T PLAY THE SERVICE SONGS AT THE VERY END.
I WOULD PLAY THE SERVICE SONGS AT THE BEGINNING, THE SERVER SONG AND A NATIONAL ANTHEM, NO NATURAL ANTHEM, THE SERVICE SONGS.
CAUSE THAT WAY EVERYONE'S GOING TO SING THEIR SERVICE SONG AND ALL THAT.
SO DANA, UM, YOU'RE GOING TO SEND SOMETHING ON SATURDAY.
UM, YOU GOING TO TAKE A CLUB, THIS IS HOW WE GOT TO WHERE WE ARE.
THEN WE NEED TO LOOK AT REARRANGING THIS PROGRAM BECAUSE IT'S NOT, IT'S NOT WHAT I HAVE RIGHT HERE.
WHAT ARE WE TALKING ABOUT? SO WHO WANTS TO, I GUESS I CAN TRY TO ADJUST TO WHAT I JUST HEARD AND SEND THAT OUT TO EVERYBODY AND YOU GUYS CAN COMMENT AND TELL ME IF I'M CRAZY OR WE CAN WORK FROM THERE.
AND, UM, AND THAT WAY WE COULD SOLIDIFY HAD ELECTRONICALLY IN, UH, WELL I THINK IF I COULD INTERJECT A LITTLE BIT, YEAH.
I THINK WHAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT HERE IS WE HAVE THE ANCHORS THAT WE WERE DESIRING, CORRECT AROUND THOSE TWO THINGS, THREE THINGS, THE EVENTS AND DATA ARE WORKING ON.
WE WORK OUT THE SCRIPT FOR AROUND THOSE THREE THINGS.
AND SO UNTIL WE GET THOSE SOLIDIFIED, THEN WE MAKE OUT, I TOLD THEM SCRIPT AS FAR AS TIMELINES, IF THAT MAKES SENSE, WE HAVE OUR ANCHOR ITEMS NOW THAT WE JUST MOVE ON AROUND THEM.
IT'S BUILDING A SCHEDULE ON THAT.
GENERALLY WE USED TO HAVE SUBCOMMITTEES THAT WOULD DO THIS, BUT I HOPE THAT'S IT.
UM, BUT WE, WE DON'T DO THAT NO MORE.
UM, SO, SO I HAVE YOU, I OWE YOU AS, UH, AN OUTLINE BY SATURDAY AND THEN WE'LL GET TOGETHER.
SO WHERE THE FIDOS THOSE REQUESTS FROM THE BASE AND I'LL ALSO GET THOSE, UM, ASKS OUT, UM, AND WE'LL GO AHEAD AND KIND OF PUT THEM IN PROTOCOL ORDER ONCE WE GET THEIR ACCEPTANCE.
DID YOU, DID YOU SAY SOMETHING FOR THE, FOR THE PROGRAM TOO? OKAY.
AND SHE DON'T TALK TO CHIEF BANQUETS.
UM, AND YOU'RE GOING TO TALK TO WAYNE.
WHAT WOULD BE A GROUP OF FOUR? YOU NEED A LOT OUT THERE, SO OKAY.
NOW WE WANT TO RAISE A FLAG, RIGHT? OKAY.
IS THERE A COLOR GUARD? I THINK I HAD ON, ON A, ON THE, UM, YEAH, I HAD THE COLOR GUARD RIGHT HERE WHERE WE DO THE NATIONAL ANTHEM.
THEY'RE GOING TO RAISE A FLAG AND EVERYTHING.
THEY CAN'T WAIT THE COLOR GUARD.
CAN'T STEP OFF AND RAISE THE FLAG.
YOU CALL HER GARDENS CALLED HER GARDEN.
THEY GOT THEIR FLAGS IN THEIR RIFLES.
THEY'RE NOT GOING TO DROP THE RIFLES AND GO RAISE THE FLAG.
SO HE'S GOING TO NEED MORE THAN FOUR.
THE CHIEF, CHIEF, UH, I'M HEARING THAT YOU MIGHT NEED MORE THAN FOUR.
IF THEY'RE GOING TO HAVE A COLOR GUARD, THERE'S FOUR.
BUT IF THEY'RE GOING TO RAISE THE FLY, THE COLOR DARK IS NOT GOING TO DEPART THERE.
[00:45:01]
THE FLAG, BUT I THINK WE HAVE TO HAVE THE OTHER ANSWER FIRST BECAUSE IF WE GET THE HONOR GUARD FROM THE BASE AND MAKE 100% OF MEN, AND IF WE HAVE SOME PRESENCE THERE THAT MAKES IT A LITTLE BIT MORE INFLUENTIAL FOR THEM TO SHOW UP, THEN THAT'S PROBABLY WHAT THERE IS RACE OF LIFE.THAT WOULD BE THEIR RESPONSIBILITY.
AND SO THAT SAID, WE HAVE THE NOVEMBER LETTER AND I DO THINK HAVING 3D AND HAVE THEM TAKE ON RESPONSIBILITIES OF RAISING THE FLAG.
I MEAN, THAT'S THE NORMAL PROCEDURE FOR, SO THEY CAN STILL PRACTICE.
THEY'RE ACTUALLY RAMP UP TO DO IT.
MAYBE THEY MIGHT THINK THEY'RE DOING TWO EVENTS.
I'M NOT LOOKING AT THE BANDIT FLIGHT.
11TH IS OUR THING THAT WE DO EVERY YEAR HERE YOU WERE HIRED.
SO I THINK WAYNE AND I NEED YOUNG MARINES.
MR.
SO WHEN ARE THE OTHER FLAGS GETTING RAISED, ALREADY BE LOCATION.
AT THE EVENT AS PART OF THE INITIAL.
I KNOW WHAT YOU'RE THINKING, BUT THERE'S NOT ENOUGH PERSONNEL A HAND LITTLE AS WELL.
IT'S NOT GOING TO BE A, A GREAT FULL PAW.
AND I WAS JUST ASKING THE QUESTION ON IT.
AND I, YOU KNOW, I HAVE EMPLOYED ME.
I UNDERSTAND, BUT IT IS WHAT IT IS.
AND SO THE GUARD WILL BE READY FOR SATURDAY.
SHOULD THEY NEED TO JUMP IN LAST MINUTE FOR SOMETHING THEY'RE ABSOLUTELY READY FOR THURSDAY? WELL, UNTIL, UNTIL CHIEF TALKS TO CHIEF OR, YOU KNOW WHAT, WE'RE STILL THROW DAVE, YOU KNOW, HE MIGHT OFFER UP THE WHOLE SMELLS, ALL THE, YOU KNOW, YOU NEVER KNOW.
SO LIKE MIKE SAID, WE HAVE ANCHORS JUST MANY.
WE'RE GOING TO ANOTHER COMPANY THAT MIKE SAID, WE HAVE THE ANCHORS.
WE JUST NOW GOT TO BUILD AROUND HIM.
AND, UM, SO DANA, WHEN WE GET INFORMATION FROM DANA, UH, WE CAN START DOING SOME MORE PLANNING.
WE DO THAT OVER LIKE TAG MEETINGS AND, UM, AND JUST KEEP WORKING IN TELECOM MASSAGE AND UNTIL THE, UNTIL YOU GET IT.
YEAH, THERE WAS THE QUESTION, UH, ON THE SIXTH OF THE PRAYER AND HAD BEEN ADDICTION.
UM, WE HAD HAD, UH, JEFF SIGNED UP FOR THAT, BUT JEFF'S, CAN'T MAKE IT, SO WE NEED TO FIND SOMEONE TO DO A PRAYER AND A ADDICTION, UH, AT THE, UH, AT THE EDUCATION.
UM, I MIGHT BE ABLE TO VOLUNTEER FROM THAT CAUSE I'VE BEEN HAVING A LOT OF DIALOGUE RECENTLY WITH DR.
AND I ALSO HAVE A LINK WITH, UH, FATHER KYLE FROM ST.
PETER'S, YOU KNOW, ONE OF THOSE TWO MIGHT BE WILLING TO DO IT.
WELL, YOU WANT TO TAKE THAT ON? OKAY.
JUST PUT A SIX, ACTUALLY, I'M GOING TO TRY TO HOOK THEM FOR BOTH.
JEFF SAID HE'LL BE HERE FOR THE 11.
YOU JUST CAN'T BE HERE FOR THE SIX.
JEFF WILL BE HERE ON, ON THE 11TH.
UM, I DON'T KNOW IF IT'S APPROPRIATE TO BRING THIS UP AT THIS TIME, BUT I'M SORRY.
MA'AM I DIDN'T KNOW ANY OF YOUR NAME, BUT YOU BROUGHT UP, YOU BROUGHT UP THE ISSUE OF INCLEMENT WEATHER.
I WAS THERE DURING THAT FREEZE AND RAIN AND ALL THAT, AND I ASSURE YOU THAT IT'S ONE OF THE MOST HORRIBLE MEMORIES OF MY LIFE.
AND IT WAS ALSO HORRIBLE FOR THE AUDIENCE AND IT WAS HORRIBLE FOR THE PARTICIPANTS.
UH, UH, SO DO WE NEED ANY SORT OF, YOU KNOW, PEOPLE SAID PEOPLE WERE HAVING IDEAS.
WELL, WE OUGHT TO GO AN UNDERCOVER OVER HERE AND OVER THERE.
AND THAT WAS KIND OF DUMB BECAUSE ALL IT WAS WAS
[00:50:01]
A SMALL ROOF AND THE RAIN WAS GOING SIDEWAYS ANYWAY.SO I DON'T THINK THERE'S ANY, ANY OPTION, BUT TO HOPE FOR GOOD WEATHER.
SO THERE'S NO USE WASTING ANY MORE TIME WE KNOW ABOUT SITUATIONS.
AND JUST LIKE LAST TIME WE HAD IT, IT WAS BEAUTIFUL.
SO WE LOOKING FOR SOME INFORMATION FROM HER.
RAY IS GOING TO LOOK AT GETTING SOMEONE FOR PRAYER ON THE, ON THE SIXTH, JEFF IS GOING TO DO PRAYER ON THE, UM, ON THE 11TH AND FROM WHAT WE FIND OUT FROM DANA AND HOW WE WORK THINGS WITH THE BAND OF FLIGHT COLOR GUARD, THEN WE CAN DO MORE PLANNING WITH YOUNG MARINES AND, UM, AND, UM, RAIN FOR THE 11TH.
MEANWHILE, WE ON STANDBY FOR THE SIX.
CAMERA'S ALL ACT DOES NOT SHOWING JUST ICE, JUST ICE ON SO, UM, WITH THAT BEING SAID, UM, I THINK WE CAN ADJOURN, BUT, UM, COMMENT, UM, YOU WERE MENTIONING, UH, HAVING A MEMENTO FOR THE, FOR THE DEDICATION THAT SOMEBODY COULD TAKE HOME.
I THINK WE WERE TALKING ABOUT THAT BEING THE BROCHURE THEY WERE TALKING ABOUT.
BUT I, I WANTED TO RUN SOMETHING ELSE BY YOU.
THIS IS A, THIS IS A HISTORIC EVENT, OBVIOUSLY FOR HEBREW HEIGHTS.
WHAT DO YOU THINK OF CREATING A MEMORIAL COIN? AND WE COULD, EH, DON'T WORRY ABOUT THAT.
I MEAN, WE PUT A MILLION DOLLARS INTO THIS, INTO THIS MEMORIAL, SO I THINK IT WOULD BE A GREAT THING TO DO.
AND WHEN PEOPLE COME, UH, LIKE WHEN WE BRING VETERANS BEFORE THE COUNCIL FOR PROCLAMATIONS, FOR RECOGNITIONS, FOR, FOR WHATEVER, IT'S, IT'S A SPECIAL COIN THAT THEY CAN TAKE HOME WITH THEM.
UM, I JUST THINK THAT THIS IS SO SPECIAL THAT WE NEED TO DO SOMETHING LIKE THAT.
SOMETHING MORE THAN JUST A PROGRAM AND WE, AND WE COULD GIVE IT TO, UH, THE PEOPLE THAT COME AND SPEAK AT THE CEREMONY.
CAN IT BE, BUT YOU'RE LOOKING AT VIDEO, I LOVED YOUR IDEA PRINTED FRIDAY SIX, UH, UH, NOVEMBER, CAN IT BE, WE'LL HAVE TO TALK TO, UH, SCOTT BELL CASKET.
CAUSE WE DID GET SOME DONE PRETTY QUICKLY.
I CAN'T REMEMBER WHAT THE VALUE WAS, GOT A COUPLE OF HUNDRED NOW, MAYBE A UNDERSTOOD, BUT I WOULD SAY THAT I WOULD MAKE, IF YOU GUYS DECIDE TO DO THAT, THEN YOU KNOW, MIKE COULD TAKE THAT REQUEST BACK OR I COULD ACTUALLY SEND THAT NOTE TO SCOTT AND ASK HIM, YOU KNOW, CAN WE DO THIS? AND HOW QUICKLY CAN WE TURN IT AROUND? I JUST THINK IT'S JUST TOOK A VOTE.
UM, AND EVEN IF IT'S NOT READY FOR THAT EVENT, YOU KNOW, WHEN PEOPLE GIVE TO THE MEMORIAL, IT'S SOMETHING WE COULD APPRECIATION.
I'M ACTUALLY GOING TO MR. PAYNE AND YOU, CAUSE I KNOW THAT YOU ARE STILL ACTIVE ON BASE AND THAT'S WHERE WE DO ALL THE POINTS AND EVERYTHING.
AND I KNOW THAT THE LIKE 88 POUNDS KEY PEOPLE THAT THEY USE TO GET THE COMMAND POINTS AND STUFF.
IS THERE ANY WAY YOU CAN GET UP TO MAYBE A COUPLE OF SOURCES, THEY GET TO GO ALONG WITH MS. BARGES, UM, REQUEST JUST TO HAVE SOME OTHER OPTIONS.
CAUSE I KNOW THERE'S REQUIREMENTS AND THEY TEND TO BE FAIRLY SPEEDING, BUT THAT LEAST HAVE SOME LINE.
CAN WE KICK US OFF? COULD YOU ASK THE QUESTION MAYBE? UM, I CAN ASK THE QUESTION.
I LOVE NANCY'S IDEA ABOUT THE CHALLENGE POINT OR THE POINT, BUT IT CAN BE MORE PERFECT FOR MILITARY OR CHANNEL.
THAT'S MY LITTLE QUESTION I HAVE FOR YOU.
ACTUALLY IT DEPENDS WOULD BE NICE CAUSE THEY'D WEAR IT ON THE VAPE.
THERE ARE ALL THE VETERANS THAT WORD ON THEIR HOUSE.
[00:55:03]
IT'S SIMPLY, YOU SAID SHUT IT AGAIN, WHICH IS MORE APPROPRIATE AVOID EVER MY FRIEND'S POINT OR A PIN.A LOT OF THE MILITARIES WEAR PINS.
LIKE WHAT'S MOST APPROPRIATE FOR A MILITARY PERSON, BUT THEY LACK COINS.
I, AS A FEMALE LOVE COINS, I JUST TO BE A MILITARY AND SODA.
MY DESK, MY DESK IS FALLING DOWN FROM THE COINS THAT ARE SITTING ON IT.
UH, BUT I'D LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION IF I MAY, BUT YOU GOT ME TODAY.
LET ME MAKE A MIS MOTION, UH, LIKE A, MAKE A MOTION THAT IMMEDIATE EFFORT BE MADE TO UNDERTAKE THAT YOU DESIGN FOR A COIN TO BE USED AT THE, UH, AT THE MEMORIAL.
UH, AND, AND, UH, CHECK ON THE ABILITY OF US TO GET A DESIGNER PREPARED BY THAT DATE.
AND WE, WE COULD USE THE PICTURE OF THE MEMORIAL AS THE DESIGN.
WE NEED TO CAPTURE, UH, THE FACT THAT, UH, CITY OF HUBER HEIGHTS WAS IN FACT IT DOES FOR ALL THIS AND ALSO CAPTURE THAT IS DEFINITELY FOR VETERANS, WHICH RIGHT.
UM, THE, THE OTHER THING I WAS GOING TO SUGGEST IS WHEN YOU HAVE YOUR PROGRAM MADE FOR THAT, THAT THE CITY CAN PRINT THOSE UP.
YOU DON'T HAVE TO PRINT THAT UP.
I NEED A SECOND ON, CAN WE CHANGE IT TO YOUR DEVICE? THEY DO THE INFO FINDING AND GET BACK TO US AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
WILL THE COUNCIL HAVE TO UPDATE THIS AT THEIR NEXT MEETING? IT DEPENDS ON HOW MUCH IT COSTS.
YOU KNOW, IF IT'S OVER $25,000.
IF IT'S UNDER $25,000, NOW IT SHOULD BE UNDER 25, BUT WE COULD DO IT AS A COURTESY JUST TO BRING IT IN.
UM, AND WE PROBABLY WOULD, AND I COULD ASK SCOTT TO BRING IT UP AT THE NEXT WORK SESSION, AT LEAST GIVE US A STATUS IF HE'S MOVING FORWARD ON IT.
AND YOU SAW YOUR SECOND WITH WHAT? NOW? IT SAYS AGAIN SECOND WITH EXPLORING THE OPTIONS FOR A MEMENTO FOR THE PARK.
AND WE BRING UP TO THE COUNCIL WITH NANCY.
YOU GOING TO BRING IT FORWARD THE FIRST OFF, UM, ALL IN FAVOR, SAY, AYE, THOSE OPPOSED SAY NAY, HEAR NONE.
THAT NANCY, YOU GOT TO TAKE IT FORWARD TO THE COUNCIL FOR IT, OR YOU GOING TO TAKE IT? UM, I'LL SPEAK TO SCOTT ABOUT IT.
IT'S JUST A QUESTION IT'S JUST PURE SORT OF PERSONAL CURIOSITY.
WHAT ARE THE STIPULATIONS? I MEAN, IT'S AN HONOR COIN.
UM, TO ME I'VE RECEIVED A LOT OF POINTS IN MY LIFE.
UM, YOU KNOW, IS IT JUST SOMEONE BENTO OF YOU'VE BEEN HERE AND, YOU KNOW, WE CALL IT AN HONOR POINT.
WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF IT? UM, CAUSE I WOULD NOT LIKE TO, UM, I DON'T WANT TO WHITEWASH SOMETHING IN A SENSE.
I MEAN, I, I MEAN, LIKE I SAID, I'VE RECEIVED SOME HONOR CLAIMS THAT ARE PRETTY HONORABLE TO ME.
I DON'T SHARE WITH A LOT OF PEOPLE.
SO I WOULD LIKE JUST THE STIPULATION OF JUST, YOU KNOW, GIVING IT TO EVERY CITIZEN THAT COMES JUST BECAUSE THEY'RE THERE, IF THAT MAKES SENSE TO YOU, ANYONE HERE.
CAUSE I, I, I RESPECT SOME OF THE THINGS IN MY MILITARY CAREER THAT I'VE DONE.
AND IF YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT A MILITARY HONOR THING, HE SAID, SO I DON'T WIPE THAT IF THAT MAKES SENSE.
UM, REMEMBER ME, YOU KNOW, IT'S NOT SPECIAL, LIKE WHAT WE GET TO DO THINGS WE DO AT THE SAME.
SO WE HAVE THAT, IT'S GOT TO GET TO THE COUNCIL, MR. PITRE PROJECTIONS.
STEVE ASKED HIM TO RETIRE CHEAP AND HE DOES ALMOST TO THE CORNER, TO THE BASE, A SOURCE TO GO TO STEVE HASKINS AND THINKING YOU'RE STILL IN THE BUSINESS.
SO, UM, WE'RE LOOKING FOR INFORMATION FROM DANA PRETTY SOON AND IT WILL TASK SOME OF THOSE THINGS TOGETHER AND WE WILL MOVE FORWARD AND UM, GET THIS DONE AND MAKE IT, UH, UH, MY EMAILS EVENT.
ANY OTHER COMMENTS? QUESTIONS, IF NOT, I'LL HAVE TO HAVE A MOTION TO ADJOURN.
NEVER HAPPENED IN THE HISTORY OF THE.
