NGAUS Legislative Update: 3/2/2007

I am sure you have all heard of the horrific conditions found at one wing of Walter Reid hospital. If not, I just covered it. It was horrific. This issue is covered in the Notes this week, along with a resignation and a firing. There is much more information covered in these notes that may interest you. Just check them out. If you like them, great. If not, fine. At least you will (not) know what you're missing.

The Legislative Updates cover many issues as well. They are usually searching for people with specific skills, so you need to keep checking. They usually have announcements regarding special meetings, such as the one that will be held March 5-6. Please bring any newspaper clippings local concerning Army, Air Force, etc. shortfalls in equipment or anything else. Much more info, but you must go read it! lol.
