<p>***  The Surface Navy Association (SNA) Scholarship program is an annual<br />
activity that SNA is very proud to offer to our members’ dependent children<br />
and spouses for undergraduate and graduate education.  The academic<br />
achievements of our scholars are impressive and our current year’s renewal<br />
GPA (for those asking for a second through fourth year of<br />
support) was 3.64.</p>
<p>An SNA Scholar receives an academic scholarship based on demonstrated<br />
leadership, community service, academic achievement and commitment to<br />
pursuing higher educational objectives. Our criteria require that an<br />
applicant be a child, stepchild, ward or spouse of a current SNA member who<br />
is a Surface Warfare Officer or Enlisted Surface Warfare Specialist or<br />
Officers and Enlisted members of the Coast Guard who’ve earned a permanent<br />
Cutterman’s pin, with three years of sea time.</p>
<p>With humble beginnings in 1995, with one scholarship for $500, we now award<br />
over $120,000 per year to 60 total individuals.  In fact, since<br />
2002 we have provided nearly three quarters of a million dollars in<br />
scholarship support to our members and families.</p>
<p>This past year, SNA received over 50 applications and was able to award<br />
scholarships to 17 of these outstanding new applicants. With your help, we<br />
can continue to grow this exceptional program. SNA is currently accepting<br />
donations for the scholarship fund online at:</p>
<p><a href="https://www.navysna.org/SNA/ScholarshipCCDonation.asp" target="_blank">https://www.navysna.org/SNA/<wbr>ScholarshipCCDonation.asp</wbr></a></p>
<p>The Surface Navy Association greatly values any donation and all donations<br />
are tax deductible as SNA is a 501(c) 3 organization. As an example of the<br />
financial clout we can have together, if every member gave just $25, it<br />
would be enough to award over 20 fully-funded new scholarships. This is an<br />
important way for us to invest in the futures of the families of our<br />
nation’s Surface Warriors.</p>

<p>***  Surface Warships 2012:</p>
<p>Exploring the Future of Global Surface Combatant Fleets</p>
<p>In a highly uncertain strategic environment, the ability to use the majority<br />
of the world&#8217;s surface, and reach most of its population makes maritime<br />
forces those of choice for the world&#8217;s main actors and their allies &#8211; and<br />
surface warships are key components of such forces. Their need to police the<br />
oceans against the dual threats of terrorism and piracy make surface warship<br />
programmes a crucial and indispensable part of the future maritime<br />
environment.</p>
<p>Surface Warships will provide the ideal environment for industry and naval<br />
professional to discuss innovative future designs and the need to keep<br />
current vessels battle ready through capability upgrades and refits.</p>

<p>***  From Rick Spearman:<br />
Ed, with all your outlets I can&#8217;t help wonder if you&#8217;re able to repost<br />
something like the note below. If you can&#8217;t, no worries, but it is for a<br />
good cause. All the best, Rick</p>
<p>Good stories start out with, &#8220;So there I was . . .&#8221;<br />
So there I was . . . walking into the Pentagon one morning when this big<br />
Army NCO passed by me like a man on a mission. As he walked by, I saw the<br />
glint of titanium where pants and boots came together. Not in just one leg,<br />
but in both.</p>
<p>Being a naturally shy person, I stopped him and asked what happened to his<br />
legs. He explained he&#8217;d lost both his legs to a roadside bomb in Iraq. We<br />
talked a while longer about his work to recover and what he was doing now. I<br />
asked him the biggest difference he noticed between the legs the Good Lord<br />
had given him and the new ones, and he said, &#8220;Well Sir, I notice my feet<br />
don&#8217;t seem to get as cold.&#8221;</p>
<p>Nothing much to do after that but thank him for his service and watch in<br />
wonder has he walked away. I did have a passing thought, though, about how<br />
great it would be to give a little something back to a guy like that.</p>
<p>Shortly after that, I heard about the Face of America Bike Ride. Face of<br />
America is a 110-mile bike ride from Washington DC to Gettysburg, PA that<br />
provides the opportunity for able-bodied bike riders to spend time on the<br />
road with riders who have been wounded serving the country. This year&#8217;s ride<br />
is April 27-29, starting at the Pentagon and ending in the middle of<br />
Gettysburg Battlefield in Pennsylvania.</p>
<p>The ride, created by World T.E.A.M Sports in conjunction with the Walter<br />
Reed National Medical Center, gives participants a unique opportunity to<br />
honor America&#8217;s warfighters who have been wounded, as they set and achieve<br />
new goals. I got so much out of this experience last year that I want to<br />
make a yearly event out of participating with these great Americans and<br />
honoring their service and sacrifice.</p>
<p>This is where I ask you for your support. Last year, with the help of some<br />
very generous contributors, I was able to raise more than $3,500 for this<br />
great cause. Wounded veterans pay no fees to participate. The rest of us<br />
raise funds to support the event and pay all costs for the wounded warriors<br />
who ride. This year, I&#8217;m asking everyone I know to contribute to this effort<br />
by going to my website to make a contribution.</p>

<p>If you don&#8217;t have access to the Internet or prefer to send a check payable<br />

<p>Face of America Bike Ride 2012<br />
Attn: Rick Spearman<br />
7003 Ferguson Drive<br />
Fredericksburg, VA 22407</p>
<p>This is really much more than a bike ride. It&#8217;s an opportunity to share<br />
stories and build camaraderie with America&#8217;s wounded warriors. It&#8217;s a way to<br />
honor their service and celebrate the American spirit. I&#8217;d appreciate your<br />
contributions to this worthy cause and am available to answer any questions<br />
you might have at either <a href="mailto:rickspearman1742@gmail.com">rickspearman1742@gmail.com</a> or <a href="tel:540-287-3256">540-287-3256</a>.</p>
<p>Thanks very much, Rick</p>
<p>Since 1987, our organization has created and organized inspiring events<br />
worldwide, including the AXA World Ride, Vietnam Challenge, Sea to Shining<br />
Sea cross-country rides, Soldiers to the Summit wounded warrior events and<br />
expeditions, the Coastal TEAM Challenge, the annual TEAM Challenge in<br />
Colorado and several Face of America rides.</p>
<p>World T.E.A.M Sports is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization<br />
headquartered in Arlington, Virginia. Support comes primarily from<br />
individual and corporate donations and sponsorships.<br />
***  The Surface Navy Association (SNA) Scholarship program is an annual<br />
activity that SNA is very proud to offer to our members&#8217; dependent children<br />
and spouses for undergraduate and graduate education.  The academic<br />
achievements of our scholars are impressive and our current year&#8217;s renewal<br />
GPA (for those asking for a second through fourth year of<br />
support) was 3.64.</p>
<p>An SNA Scholar receives an academic scholarship based on demonstrated<br />
leadership, community service, academic achievement and commitment to<br />
pursuing higher educational objectives. Our criteria require that an<br />
applicant be a child, stepchild, ward or spouse of a current SNA member who<br />
is a Surface Warfare Officer or Enlisted Surface Warfare Specialist or<br />
Officers and Enlisted members of the Coast Guard who&#8217;ve earned a permanent<br />
Cutterman&#8217;s pin, with three years of sea time.</p>
<p>With humble beginnings in 1995, with one scholarship for $500, we now award<br />
over $120,000 per year to 60 total individuals.  In fact, since<br />
2002 we have provided nearly three quarters of a million dollars in<br />
scholarship support to our members and families.</p>
<p>This past year, SNA received over 50 applications and was able to award<br />
scholarships to 17 of these outstanding new applicants. With your help, we<br />
can continue to grow this exceptional program. SNA is currently accepting<br />
donations for the scholarship fund online at:</p>
<p><a href="https://www.navysna.org/SNA/ScholarshipCCDonation.asp" target="_blank">https://www.navysna.org/SNA/<wbr>ScholarshipCCDonation.asp</wbr></a></p>
<p>The Surface Navy Association greatly values any donation and all donations<br />
are tax deductible as SNA is a 501(c) 3 organization. As an example of the<br />
financial clout we can have together, if every member gave just $25, it<br />
would be enough to award over 20 fully-funded new scholarships. This is an<br />
important way for us to invest in the futures of the families of our<br />
nation&#8217;s Surface Warriors.</p>

<p>Exploring the Future of Global Surface Combatant Fleets</p>
<p>In a highly uncertain strategic environment, the ability to use the majority<br />
of the world&#8217;s surface, and reach most of its population makes maritime<br />
forces those of choice for the world&#8217;s main actors and their allies &#8211; and<br />
surface warships are key components of such forces. Their need to police the<br />
oceans against the dual threats of terrorism and piracy make surface warship<br />
programmes a crucial and indispensable part of the future maritime<br />
environment.</p>
<p>Surface Warships will provide the ideal environment for industry and naval<br />
professional to discuss innovative future designs and the need to keep<br />
current vessels battle ready through capability upgrades and refits.</p>

<p>***  The Surface Navy Association (SNA) Scholarship program is an annual<br />
activity that SNA is very proud to offer to our members&#8217; dependent children<br />
and spouses for undergraduate and graduate education.  The academic<br />
achievements of our scholars are impressive and our current year&#8217;s renewal<br />
GPA (for those asking for a second through fourth year of<br />
support) was 3.64.</p>
<p>An SNA Scholar receives an academic scholarship based on demonstrated<br />
leadership, community service, academic achievement and commitment to<br />
pursuing higher educational objectives. Our criteria require that an<br />
applicant be a child, stepchild, ward or spouse of a current SNA member who<br />
is a Surface Warfare Officer or Enlisted Surface Warfare Specialist or<br />
Officers and Enlisted members of the Coast Guard who&#8217;ve earned a permanent<br />
Cutterman&#8217;s pin, with three years of sea time.</p>
<p>With humble beginnings in 1995, with one scholarship for $500, we now award<br />
over $120,000 per year to 60 total individuals.  In fact, since<br />
2002 we have provided nearly three quarters of a million dollars in<br />
scholarship support to our members and families.</p>
<p>This past year, SNA received over 50 applications and was able to award<br />
scholarships to 17 of these outstanding new applicants. With your help, we<br />
can continue to grow this exceptional program. SNA is currently accepting<br />
donations for the scholarship fund online at:</p>
<p><a href="https://www.navysna.org/SNA/ScholarshipCCDonation.asp" target="_blank">https://www.navysna.org/SNA/<wbr>ScholarshipCCDonation.asp</wbr></a></p>
<p>The Surface Navy Association greatly values any donation and all donations<br />
are tax deductible as SNA is a 501(c) 3 organization. As an example of the<br />
financial clout we can have together, if every member gave just $25, it<br />
would be enough to award over 20 fully-funded new scholarships. This is an<br />
important way for us to invest in the futures of the families of our<br />
nation&#8217;s Surface Warriors.</p>

<p>In a highly uncertain strategic environment, the ability to use the majority of the world&#8217;s surface, and reach most of its population makes maritime forces those of choice for the world&#8217;s main actors and their allies &#8211; and surface warships are key components of such forces. Their need to police the oceans against the dual threats of terrorism and piracy make surface warship programmes a crucial and indispensable part of the future maritime environment.</p>
<p>Surface Warships will provide the ideal environment for industry and naval professional to discuss innovative future designs and the need to keep current vessels battle ready through capability upgrades and refits.</p>

Cut off date for this discount is December 30, 2011. <a href="http://www.navysna.org/2012Symposium/20RegistrationIndex12.htm">http://www.navysna.org/2012Symposium/20RegistrationIndex12.htm</a></p>
<p>*** The Surface Navy Association (SNA) Scholarship program is an annual activity that SNA is very proud to offer to our members&#8217; dependent children and spouses for undergraduate and graduate education. The academic achievements of our scholars are impressive and our current year&#8217;s renewal GPA (for those asking for a second through fourth year of support) was 3.64.</p>
<p>An SNA Scholar receives an academic scholarship based on demonstrated leadership, community service, academic achievement and commitment to pursuing higher educational objectives. Our criteria require that an applicant be a child, stepchild, ward or spouse of a current SNA member who is a Surface Warfare Officer or Enlisted Surface Warfare Specialist or Officers and Enlisted members of the Coast Guard who&#8217;ve earned a permanent Cutterman&#8217;s pin, with three years of sea time.</p>
<p>With humble beginnings in 1995, with one scholarship for $500, we now award over $120,000 per year to 60 total individuals. In fact, since 2002 we have provided nearly three quarters of a million dollars in scholarship support to our members and families.</p>
<p>This past year, SNA received over 50 applications and was able to award scholarships to 17 of these outstanding new applicants. With your help, we can continue to grow this exceptional program. SNA is currently accepting donations for the scholarship fund online at:</p>
<p><a href="https://www.navysna.org/SNA/ScholarshipCCDonation.asp">https://www.navysna.org/SNA/ScholarshipCCDonation.asp</a></p>
<p>The Surface Navy Association greatly values any donation and all donations are tax deductible as SNA is a 501(c) 3 organization. As an example of the financial clout we can have together, if every member gave just $25, it would be enough to award over 20 fully-funded new scholarships. This is an important way for us to invest in the futures of the families of our nation&#8217;s Surface Warriors.</p>

<p>*** Surface Warships 2012:</p>
<p>Exploring the Future of Global Surface Combatant Fleets</p>
<p>In a highly uncertain strategic environment, the ability to use the majority of the world&#8217;s surface, and reach most of its population makes maritime forces those of choice for the world&#8217;s main actors and their allies &#8211; and surface warships are key components of such forces. Their need to police the oceans against the dual threats of terrorism and piracy make surface warship programmes a crucial and indispensable part of the future maritime environment.</p>
<p>Surface Warships will provide the ideal environment for industry and naval professional to discuss innovative future designs and the need to keep current vessels battle ready through capability upgrades and refits.</p>
<p>23 &#8211; 25 January, 2012, Hyatt Regency, Paris, France</p>

<p>*** &#8220;FREEDOM CENTER HOSTS 2,500 MILITARY TRAVELERS SINCE VETERANS DAY OPENING&#8221; Traveling Armed Forces Assisted at New Military Lounge in McNamara Terminal DETROIT, December 23, 2011 &#8211; Freedom Center, the new military lounge at Detroit Metropolitan Airport (DTW), has hosted more than 2,500 members of our Armed Forces and their dependents since its official opening on Veterans Day 2011. &#8220;Thanks to our great team of volunteers and the financial support of area corporations and private citizens, Freedom Center is providing much needed and deserved support to our men and women in uniform and their families.&#8221; said Ken Pratt, president of Michigan Armed Forces Hospitality Center, Inc., the non-profit organization which established Freedom Center. &#8220;We provide a warm welcome, a comfortable lounge area, free WiFi, hot and cold beverages, as well as invaluable personal assistance when needed. Although our normal hours are from six in the morning until nine at night, we have kept our doors open around the clock when troops have been stranded when flights have arrived late from overseas.&#8221; Located adjacent to Gate A43 in the McNamara Terminal, the 1,100 sq. ft. Freedom Center serves members of the Armed Forces and their dependents and is open to veterans as well. Pratt said that Freedom Center would not have been possible without the support of the Wayne County Airport Authority (WCAA) and a growing base of corporation donors, led by Meritor Defense. Other major financial donors include the Michigan Chapter of the National Defense Industrial Association, the Masco Foundation, Cadillac Casting, Merrill Technologies Group, Oshkosh Defense, Pratt &amp; Miller Engineering, Lapeer Industries, Michigan Regional Council of Carpenters and Millwrights, Raymond James &amp; Associates, Rent-A-Center and the Arsenal of Democracy Chapter, Association of the United States Army. Valuable in-kind support has been provided by many local firms, including General Dynamics Land Systems, Marketing Associates, Delta Air Lines, Einstein Bros Bagels, Paradies Metro Ventures, Midfield Concessions, Host Marriott Services, Concessions International the Westin Hotel, Enterprise Rent-A-Car, Home Depot and the Detroit Popcorn Company. &#8220;Since opening our doors, the support from the community has been outstanding,&#8221; Pratt said. &#8220;In addition to financial support from corporations and individuals, Freedom Center has benefited greatly from the personal assistance provided by the employees of Delta Air Lines, the Transportation Safety Administration and others members of the airport community. When we have special needs for travelers in distress, the DTW team has been there for us. We can&#8217;t thank them enough.&#8221; Additional information on how to make a financial contribution or become a volunteer is available on the organization&#8217;s website: <a href="http://www.MIfreedomcenter.org">www.MIfreedomcenter.org</a></p>
<p>*** The Surface Navy Association (SNA) Scholarship program is an annual activity that SNA is very proud to offer to our members&#8217; dependent children and spouses for undergraduate and graduate education. The academic achievements of our scholars are impressive and our current year&#8217;s renewal GPA (for those asking for a second through fourth year of support) was 3.64.</p>
<p>An SNA Scholar receives an academic scholarship based on demonstrated leadership, community service, academic achievement and commitment to pursuing higher educational objectives. Our criteria require that an applicant be a child, stepchild, ward or spouse of a current SNA member who is a Surface Warfare Officer or Enlisted Surface Warfare Specialist or Officers and Enlisted members of the Coast Guard who&#8217;ve earned a permanent Cutterman&#8217;s pin, with three years of sea time.</p>
<p>With humble beginnings in 1995, with one scholarship for $500, we now award over $120,000 per year to 60 total individuals. In fact, since 2002 we have provided nearly three quarters of a million dollars in scholarship support to our members and families.</p>
<p>This past year, SNA received over 50 applications and was able to award scholarships to 17 of these outstanding new applicants. With your help, we can continue to grow this exceptional program. SNA is currently accepting donations for the scholarship fund online at:</p>
<p><a href="https://www.navysna.org/SNA/ScholarshipCCDonation.asp">https://www.navysna.org/SNA/ScholarshipCCDonation.asp</a></p>
<p>The Surface Navy Association greatly values any donation and all donations are tax deductible as SNA is a 501(c) 3 organization. As an example of the financial clout we can have together, if every member gave just $25, it would be enough to award over 20 fully-funded new scholarships. This is an important way for us to invest in the futures of the families of our nation&#8217;s Surface Warriors.</p>

<p>***  Surface Warships 2012:</p>
<p>Exploring the Future of Global Surface Combatant Fleets</p>
<p>In a highly uncertain strategic environment, the ability to use the<br />
majority of the world&#8217;s surface, and reach most of its population makes<br />
maritime forces those of choice for the world&#8217;s main actors and their<br />
allies &#8211; and surface warships are key components of such forces. Their<br />
need to police the oceans against the dual threats of terrorism and<br />
piracy make surface warship programmes a crucial and indispensable part<br />
of the future maritime environment.</p>
<p>Surface Warships will provide the ideal environment for industry and<br />
naval professional to discuss innovative future designs and the need to<br />
keep current vessels battle ready through capability upgrades and<br />
refits.</p>

<p>***  Miles Wiley sends:  The Washington Post reported that Colonel Marv<br />
Harris passed away on December 9, 2011, after a long illness.  Donations<br />
can be given to the MOAA Scholarship Fund.</p>
<p>Ned&#8217;s comment:  Marv Harris was at the Air Force&#8217;s Public Affairs office<br />
when I was working for the DoD news desk.  He was a familiar face<br />
passing through the news desk area, always with a smile and never too<br />
self-important not to share something we needed to know.  In retirement<br />
he ran the very successful Military Officer magazine, which I receive as<br />
a member of the Military Officers Association of America.</p>
<p>***  This is cool video of the F-35 VSTOL variant launching and<br />
recovering onboard USS Wasp.  This is a terrific capability.  The<br />
unknown at this point is how to manage the exhaust heat on the flight<br />

***  The Surface Navy Association (SNA) Scholarship program is an annual<br />
activity that SNA is very proud to offer to our members&#8217; dependent<br />
children and spouses for undergraduate and graduate education.  The<br />
academic achievements of our scholars are impressive and our current<br />
year&#8217;s renewal GPA (for those asking for a second through fourth year of<br />
support) was 3.64.</p>
<p>An SNA Scholar receives an academic scholarship based on demonstrated<br />
leadership, community service, academic achievement and commitment to<br />
pursuing higher educational objectives. Our criteria require that an<br />
applicant be a child, stepchild, ward or spouse of a current SNA member<br />
who is a Surface Warfare Officer or Enlisted Surface Warfare Specialist<br />
or Officers and Enlisted members of the Coast Guard who&#8217;ve earned a<br />
permanent Cutterman&#8217;s pin, with three years of sea time.</p>
<p>With humble beginnings in 1995, with one scholarship for $500, we now<br />
award over $120,000 per year to 60 total individuals.  In fact, since<br />
2002 we have provided nearly three quarters of a million dollars in<br />
scholarship support to our members and families.</p>
<p>This past year, SNA received over 50 applications and was able to award<br />
scholarships to 17 of these outstanding new applicants. With your help,<br />
we can continue to grow this exceptional program. SNA is currently<br />
accepting donations for the scholarship fund online at:</p>
<p>https://www.navysna.org/SNA/ScholarshipCCDonation.asp</p>
<p>The Surface Navy Association greatly values any donation and all<br />
donations are tax deductible as SNA is a 501(c) 3 organization. As an<br />
example of the financial clout we can have together, if every member<br />
gave just $25, it would be enough to award over 20 fully-funded new<br />
scholarships. This is an important way for us to invest in the futures<br />
of the families of our nation&#8217;s Surface Warriors.</p>

<p class="MsoPlainText"><span> </span></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><span>In<br />
a highly uncertain strategic environment, the ability to use the majority of<br />
the world&#8217;s surface, and reach most of its population makes maritime forces<br />
those of choice for the world&#8217;s main actors and their allies &#8211; and surface<br />
warships are key components of such forces. Their need to police the oceans<br />
against the dual threats of terrorism and piracy make surface warship<br />
programmes a crucial and indispensable part of the future maritime environment.</span></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><span> </span></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><span>Surface<br />
Warships will provide the ideal environment for industry and naval professional<br />

humble beginnings in 1995, with one scholarship for $500, we now award over<br />
$120,000 per year to 60 total individuals.  In fact, s<span>ince 2002 we have provided nearly three quarters of a<br />
million dollars in scholarship support to our members and families.  </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span>This<br />
past year, SNA received over 50 applications and was able to award scholarships<br />
to 17 of these outstanding new applicants. With your help, we can continue to<br />
grow this exceptional program. SNA is currently accepting donations for the<br />
scholarship fund online at: </span></p>

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNoSpacing"><span>The Surface Navy Association greatly values any<br />
donation and all donations are tax deductible as SNA is a 501(c) 3<br />
organization. As an example of the financial clout we can have together, if<br />
every member gave just $25, it would be enough to award over 20 fully-funded<br />
new scholarships. This is an important way for us to invest in the futures of<br />
the families of our nation’s Surface Warriors.</span></p>
