A great evening spent with Comrades and friends! The 2017 Banquet was yet antoher outstanding WMMOA event. A strong tournout of the membership ready for a fun evening and an engaging and entertaining guest speaker in BG Colleen McGuire. The General mixed with the group early during happy hour and one got the feeling she was the Mistress of Ceremonies! Many of the members were in uniform and most sported ribbons and medals setting the tone for the stories that were flowing. We recognized the 45th Anniversary of the Western Montana Chapter with a table display of photos and awards recieved over the past 4 decades. The Doubletree provided a great dinner, and the formal commissioning of the new board members with the transfer of the Chapter presidency went off without a hitch, and only a few tears… (of relief by Gary as recieved his “Past President” pin). A great way to close out an eventful year and jump into summer!
