Rifle Squad Members…current and past. The jacket we use is no longer available. The Board decided to ask former members to turn in their jackets vice ordering a new version. We’d like to enlist new members to the squad and issue them a cleaned jacket. Please bring your jacket to the Post and hang it in the bar storage room with your name on a post it in the pocket. Current members do the same and we’ll have them cleaned. If unable to come to the Post please advise and we will make arrangements to pick them up.
