I have just got off of the phone with Secretary Francisco Urena of the
Commonwealth, the Veterans Services and ran by him the offer of Post 157 of
the Jewish War Veterans to establish a Veteran Service Officer within the
post. Our primary goal will be to make sure every veteran and survivor of a
veteran in this community is served and NONE will be left behind. We are a
volunteer outfit, there are no costs to the town for our services.
Our first mission is to get to The Board of Selectmen and inform them of
our intent. I hope to accomplish this on Tuesday at their meeting.
This was the best solution I could come up with. I did not in any way want
to take legal action on this subject. This certainly is our best possible
alternative. We will discuss our forward progress at our next meeting.
