On a cold winter's day in January, 2005, the family of the 7th Maryland settled in for their annual meeting at Greenbriar State Park. As usual, no one had informed the custodian the unit would be there at 9 am, so, as usual, all stood out in the cold stamping their feet and cracking jokes until the key arrived.
It was all down hill from there. Conducting the procedures were President Sgt. Steve Bush and the Commanding Officer of the 7th Md., Capt. Jay Henson.
Reports were given by Vice-President Cpl. Jeff Bush and Civilian Coordinator Miss Cheryl Bush.
The Award for Best Actor in a Supporting Role went to Pvt. Steve Lynch, although there were many runner-ups, far too many to mention in such a short space.
Let's face it....we're all hams, anyway. Just some have more mustard then others. Not by much, though.
Miss Cheryl Bush, despite her feign at stage fright, produced a fine report on civilian activities throughout the previous year and their efforts to enhance the 7th Maryland in the coming campaigns.
Then came the all out war of attrition....
The race for new officer positions. A dreadful bloodbath of bombastic accusations and negative ads all led to the rank and file throwing in the towel and .....well, meet the new bosses..the same as the old bosses...
Eh, if it works, why change a good thing.
The best was yet to come, though..the..the
Schedule of Coming Events!!!
This year will be a mixture of hard core and soft core and maybe some Zocor for us older soldiers. It starts fast with drill on the 19th of February at Marietta Mansion and terminates with next year's annual meeting on Sunday, January 15th.....where we'll be once more be stamping our feet and telling jokes until the key arrives from the custodian.
Life goes on.
