Good Day All. The ftx over the last weekend went well. much was learned about our physical capabilities and limitations. I was proud to see the level of professionalism displayed by the members.
As you are aware, cold weather op's are one of the most difficult to conduct. we had a great time and, I look forward to the 55th building on what we had here in the next ftx they will be holding.

Greetings all, I just wanted to take a moment today Dec 7th to remind all of us who have family or friends who served this great country during WWII to take a moment and thank them for their service. Today marks the 70th anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor which pushed us into WWII. Now that it has been 70 years there are fewer and fewer of our aging vets left to thank for their service. On a more militia related note, we need to stay vigilant in our training and other activities as this time of year has a tendency to get us sidetracked with all of the family and holidays. Not that we should not be thankful for these things we just need to remember as militia men, it is our duty to protect these things. We as a group have our training for Dec. on the 17th. Our meeting is on the 12th in Post Falls at Denny's at 6:30pm. Come to the meeting for more info on this month's training and other activities. Your Sincerely, Capt. Kevin Korsund CO 55th Bn. Kootenai County,ID.
