Eileen, I agree. I think what you mention is across the Board and is related to the affect the technology (computers, cell phones, internet, cable TV) has on us. We are an instant gratification short attention span society now - to an extreme. We will not be able to change this and we simply must adopt somehow. The environment keeps changing and we must as well - else fade away. This will mean using emerging technologies (such as we are doing, here) such as Facebook, Twitter, websites, etc. I am exploring with people now and do not yet have all the answers, but I am beginning to formulate the questions.

Yes, Eileen, most men would probably feel uncomfortable joining a group with your name.:-) we have a similar issue with the nonprofit I represent: Maricopa Association for Combat Veterans - open to ALL veterans of the armed forces and the Coast Guard - and to those non-veterans who wish to join in support of veterans and their families. Now we - too - must change our name.
Hi Eileen - I represent an organization supporting veterans and their families. I will do what I can to pass along your request. Please let me know if there is ever an idea whereby we might work together to make a difference.
Thank you, but I haven't been in service for over a decade, and would not want anyone to confuse my service with the brave service of those actually in combat now. Thanks though!
