The Arizona and New Mexico Societies played host to 419 Compatriots, wives and guests. They are to be commended for a great Congress. Compatriots the Virginia Society more than held its own. We should all be proud about Past State Presidents who now hold National Office. On the penultimate wrung of the ladder is Joe Dooley, Secretary General.

Joining him as a National Officer is Semper Fi Bob Bowen, now Historian General. Larry McKinley is to be congratulated for having raised the bar as the VP General of the Mid-Atlantic States this past year.

General William Campbell Chapter Unique Flag Certificate Presentation The General William Campbell Chapter recently presented two flag certificates, and decided to turn each event into a newsworthy ceremony. For each one, they presented the Flag Certificate, printed up a nice Proclamation regarding the significance of honoring the flag, and gave each one a specially antiqued Betsy Ross style flag. To make it even more interesting, a musket volley followed each presentation. Show below left, the first recipient was the Town of Abingdon. The second, was Bill Gatton Honda. 4

For 53 years the Thomas Nelson Jr. Chapter has sponsored Bingo games four times a year at the Hampton VA Hospital. They donate $50 in cash prizes ($1 or $2) per winner. A game lasts about one hour or until all the cash has been awarded. Usually patients attend. The game is followed by kool aid aid and cookies provided by compatriot's wives. The activity is very informal and very low key. 5

S A R / C e r e m o n y a t F i n c a s t l e A joint ceremony for the SAR and Virginia Society of the War of 1812 was held on June 30, 2012 at the Fincastle Presbyterian Church. The Fincastle Resolutions Chapter hosted this event and it featured several guest speakers from historical societies, the Church Historian and Fincastle dignitaries. Two Bronze plaques that honor 36 Revolutionary War soldiers and 20 War of 1812 participants were dedicated, and wreaths were presented by representatives from numerous Virginia chapters of the Sons of the American Revolution, Daughters of the American Revolution and Society of the War of Ceremonial presentations included the posting of the colors, a musket rifle salute, and a performance of Taps. The Botetourt County Courthouse and the Fincastle Museum were opened especially for this occasion until 4PM for viewing of historical artifacts and important documents signed by such notables as Patrick Henry, Thomas Jefferson, and Robert E.

9 Special Induction of Jack Walker story and photo by the Fairfax Resolves Chapter The Fairfax Resolves Chapter conducted a special induction ceremony over Memorial Day weekend. A small group of Chapter Compatriots assembled with the Walker family and the Compatriots conducted the meeting ritual and induction ceremony. John Henry (Jack) Walker was sworn in with all of his adult children, his wife (Joan), multiple grandchildren, and close friends and neighbors present. Compatriot Walker received his SAR Membership certificate, proven Record Copy application, SAR Membership Card, and his SAR Rosette. He recounted his Patriot's service (Private James Prichard, MD) and life for his family, explaining that his first foray into family history was coloring in the family history book at a very young age. This was a very emotional event and all attendees understood the importance of this ceremony. Up until this point, this account sounds like a typical new member induction. However, due to the SAR Genealogy Department's policy for expedited applications, this application went from signature to rosette in less than one month. Due to critical medical issues, Compatriot Walker was installed in his home instead of at a regular Chapter Meeting. The success of this ceremony is an enormous credit to National Headquarters' Genealogy Department, and the thorough work of the Chapter Registrar, Jack Sweeney. Compatriot Walker and his family now have a proven line through which his son, daughters and grandchildren can apply for membership. The Fairfax Resolves Chapter is honored to help him recognize his Patriot Ancestor's service. Attendees for this event were Mid-Atlantic VPG Larry McKinley and Fairfax Resolves Past President Darrin Schmidt in uniform, Fairfax Resolves Registrar and Past President Jack Sweeney, Fairfax Resolves Chaplain Rev. Howell Sasser, Fairfax Resolves Board of Managers Member CAPT Paul Peak, Jr., Fairfax Resolves Past President CAPT Dennis Hickey, and Thomas Nelson Chapter DAR Vice Regent Holly Lynne M. Schmidt. Hayes awarded with Bronze Citizenship Medal story by the Dan River Chapter On June 14, the Dan River Chapter honored Douglas Hayes with the Bronze Citizenship Medal Mr. Hayes is one of the last D-Day survivors in Danville. He received the Purple Heart operating a troop landing craft. He lost his eye when one of the soldiers he let out tripped a land mine and a fragment hit him. Mr. Hayes has been active in veteran's activities for more than 50 years. He is a former state VFW commander and is the second oldest member of the Virginia VFW Honor Guard. Mr. Hayes serves on state committees with the VFW and the American Legion. When attendance dwindled at Danville Veteran's Day parade, Doug was one of the people who fought to keep it going. The parade is doing much better now with more community support. 9

10 P A R T Y L I K E I T S YORKTOWN CELEBRATION OCTOBER 19th VASSAR SEMI-ANNUAL September Charlottesville 10 The VASSAR Color Guard and some friends were on hand to help the Virginia Museum of Transportation commemorate the new paint job that has been applied to the N&W 1776 Engine. In 1974, the Norfolk & Western Railway the number 1776 engine red, white, and blue to celebrate the USA s Bicentennial of national independence. For years, she led trains across the N&W system, securing her place as a national icon. She was donated to the Museum by Norfolk Southern after her retirement in After several decades, funds were raised to help bring the engine s paint scheme back to its former beauty. VASSAR was honored to have been asked to participate in this celebration.

11 continued from page 2 And, in support of the State C.A.R., I travelled to The Pohick Episcopal Church in Lorton for a wreath ceremony organized by the Light Horse Harry Lee Society. The third week of June, I hosted the VASSAR EC for a meeting at our home followed by a dinner party in honor of visiting PG Larry and Barbara Magerkurth. The following morning, I presided over a private wreath laying ceremony by the PG at Jefferson s grave at Monticello. The event was attended by EC members, their spouses, senior DAR figures, the C.A.R., and Chapter reps from around the State. The Color Guard was in great form for this occasion, as it has been at so many events these past few months. We were also honored to have the Monticello President Leslie Bowman as a speaker. These events were a prelude to the SAR Conference on the American Revolution masterfully orchestrated by then NSSAR Treasurer [now NSSAR Secretary Go Joe!] Dooley held at Monticello. Among other attributes, the Conference enjoyed papers presented by three Pulitzer Prize winning historians. The reviews have been nothing short of spectacular. Hard upon the recent storm damage, a magnificent joint Rev War-War of 1812 grave marking of a total of 56 Patriots took place at the Presbyterian Church in Fincastle. The Fincastle Resolutions men and Mike Lyman did an outstanding job pulling this my third and final Initiative together. The Parishioners performed a miracle in the clearing of downed trees and debris that morning - insuring that the show would go on. The Color Guard gave us a thrilling musket salute. On the 4 th of July, I shared the honor, with GW s WWII Veteran Jack Shawn, of presenting a wreath at Gen. Washington s tomb. Organized by the GW Chapter, complete with VASSAR Color Guard, fife and drums, 2 mounted Continental Line Dragoons (the younger our VAS- SAR Oration Contest winner Josh Underwood) and cheering crowds in front of the Mt. Vernon House - a sight never to forget Some hats are hard to take off. In my capacity as Chapter Awards Chair, I organized the presentation of 21 ROTC and Good Citizenship awards. I also submitted an article regarding the Convention Army Road Side Marker story for the SAR Magazine. My great thanks and appreciation go to VPs Webber and Broadus who covered for me at the Williamsburg Memorial Day Parade and the Siege at the Block House events, respectively. The National Congress in Phoenix was a great opportunity to see and meet new Compatriots from around the country. The Virginia Society made a strong showing reflective of the strong leadership of Past President Brennan, his team and all of you. [See the Phoenix Congress Achievements]. Dan River has presented 11 Flags already this year proving size does not matter. VASSAR and 13 Chapters have presented. Those who have not, let s get crackin, please. 14 Chapters to go Let s achieve 100% participation 3 yrs. in a row! Mark your calendar for the Semi-Annual, Sept. 14,15, in Charlottesville Info out on the website presently. Ladies programs will be fabulous! See you all there. Fraternally, Dr. Henry P. (Phil) Williams III ONE MORE PRESIDENTIAL INITIATIVE LEFT! Submit an Americanism Award Report Form Above, Michael Elson addresses the audience during the ceremony at Washington s Tomb.

Various societies participated in a wreath ceremony to honor several Revolutionary War Patriots. The church was built between 1766 and 1774 and the Washington family had a pew there, and George himself was on the Vestry.

On May 26, the Virginia SAR and the Society of the War of 1812 in Virginia participated in a Memorial Day celebration in Rocky Mount, VA. Surrounded by Civil War reenactors, the small contingent of VASSAR color guard members and several VASSAR members brought attention to the Revolutionary and 1812 era. The attendees, accustomed to seeing Civil War uniforms, were impressed with the new additions to their ceremony. Dennis Fritts wore his Richmond Blues impression, and that was the first time the 1812 colorguard uniform had been in Southern Virginia. Mr. Fritts was one of the keynote speakers for the event, and took that opportunity to educate the viewers on the history of the War of
