From the Treasurer
All checks from parades, donations or paid events must be payable to HMI. Not 1812, F&I, 3rd Pa, WWII or any other impression. Please make sure you send the checks to me and not your home or work address. It has to be sent to me and if you don't have my address you can call for it or have a copy on you when you fill out the paper work like at Germantown, Red Bank, Yardville or any other event where it has to be sent in.

From Dick Toone
I got a call from a active Army Sergeant who has an unused WW II
Officers Mess Kit and is looking for a value, possibly to sell. If you could
circulate this information and one of the HMI guys would like to make contact
with me I will try to hook him up.

From Jennifer Bradley
As most of you know every year the 3rd PA Lights has and event in Mt. Holly, New Jersey called the “Battle of Iron Works Hill.” Every year since the passing of Commander Michael Goode, the 3rd Pa has sent an honor guard to place a wreath, make a small dedication and a toast at his grave site. The “Saint Andrew’s Episcopal Church” grave yard on the mount, has many Revolutionary war graves in the cemetery including that of an officer buried across from Michael. Michael wanted to be buried under a large tree next to the Revolutionary war soldiers. That tree fell down and in doing so hit and shattered many of the Revolutionary War soldiers grave stones in front and behind Michael’s head stone, leaving his untouched.
Pat Jordan had mentioned at the dedication in December, that the 3rd PA should try to raise funds to restore or replace the stone markers. I talked to Pat Jordan and he would like to head up the committee to raise the funds. This is open to all members of HMI. If you are interested in helping to get this project off the ground, please call Pat Jordan. Remember it is not enough just to act concerned about preserving history it is helping to preserve history that matters!Thank you.
