Good morning, friends.

I want to thank Charley (Ashley) from Ohio who has served as Deputy NC for ten months - the longest sentence tenure since we started having a NC/D.

During her time as Deputy, Charley been a fantastic member of the National Staff.  She's an astute, adaptive leader and has been instrumental in moving the program forward during 2022.  Ashley, you have my respect and gratitude for everything you've done.  The Ohio team is fortunate to have you.

With that said, please join me in welcoming Captain (Rob) from Arkansas as the new Deputy National Coordinator!!  He is a very active dSB and is currently serving as the Central Plains Region RC.

Thanks for stepping up!   O0

They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.
Benjamin Franklin, 1775

"A free people ought not only to be armed, but disciplined; to which end a uniform and well-digested plan is requisite; and their safety and interest require that they should promote such manufactories as tend to render them independent of others for essential, particularly military, supplies."  George Washington 1790

"[T]o preserve liberty, it is essential that the whole body of the people always possess arms, and be taught alike, especially when young, how to use them…"
- Richard Henry Lee, Declaration Signer

"Responsibility is a unique concept... You may share it with others, but your portion is not diminished. You may delegate it, but it is still with you... If responsibility is rightfully yours, no evasion, or ignorance or passing the blame can shift the burden to someone else. Unless you can point your finger at the man who is responsible when something goes wrong, then you have never had anyone really responsible."
― Hyman G. Rickover

Hey Rob,

Thank you so much for accepting this important job.  Be assured that everyone associated with Project Appleseed is so grateful for all of your contributions to the success of the program, and we are all in disbelief of the time and distances and weekends devoted and expertise and miles traveled and sacrifice of personal time and on and on!  You're the best!  Please take some time off at least once in awhile!!
When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them,  and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that is the beginning of the end of any nation.

The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else.

You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity.

Hey Captain -- CONGRATULATIONS!!
ACCEPT YOUR WOBBLE!

It's not about perfection -- it's about progress!!

I LOVE this stuff!

"Perhaps you and I have lived with this miracle too long to be properly appreciative. Freedom is a fragile thing and is never more than one generation away from extinction. It is not ours by inheritance; it must be fought for and defended constantly by each generation, for it comes only once to a people. Those who have known freedom and then lost it have never known it again."  Ronald Reagan
