members in the news: |
Our
troops have Moxie!
We have always known that the brave troops
serving our country have had plenty of moxie (the
word), but now NEMC national secretary, Dan Hovey,
has made sure that they are rewarded with plenty
of MOXIE (the beverage of champions)!
Dan faithfully serves as a "Pease
Greeter" meeting troop planes returning to
the US from combat duty and makes sure that they
know that we care and appreciate their sacrifices
on our behalf...and what better way than to make
sure that they are greeted and treated with the Mahogany
Ambrosia!
See the Facebook "I've Got Moxie" and
"Pease Greeter" groups
for details... |

which he is now free to pursue now that his garage
is empty.
