The 2007 JPL Open House this year will be held on May 19th & 20th from 9am to 5pm and is a 'Must See' for anyone interested in the latest from NASA. Post 280’s Chaplain Ed Barlow will be giving Mars Rover demonstrations, maybe I'll let him run me over in one!

Take your kids, it might open their eyes to a new career path!

 Aerospace Commission Update Report - January 2007
  by John H. “Jack” Craigie, Area 4 Aerospace Commissioner
    The American Legion Department of California

From the 2005-2006 Aerospace Commission Book of Reports and the 23 June Report to the Floor in Fresno:

“The Aerospace Commission will offer ideas, descriptions of activities that individual posts may wish to pursue. We will make suggestions as to what might be done and how. Naturally, it will be up to each post to decide its course, and to carry it out. It is they who must carry out the activities, and within their own unique environment.”

As promised, here are a few ideas and suggestions – some old and some new:

As you will see, I am candid about the process. Not everything went as I had expected. These are informal notes for your information. I have incorporated material provided by Larry Leonardo and others; but I am responsible for any errors. This is just a starter discussion. Please add your inputs to this Aerospace Commission page on the “calegion.org” website.
