COMMANDERS MESSAGE

Hi! I am Brian Danforth the 2010-2011 Commander for the Detachment of Maine.

I’ve been a member in good standing for 14 years now and have succeeded Bruce Pierce.

I am a past Squadron Commander (3 terms), as well as other positions in squadron, also past District 9 Commander (two terms).

I have been Vice Commander for the Detachment of Maine (3 terms).

I stand very proud to lead this state into what will prove to be a very productive organization. I am very proud of all the officers who serve with me who’s goals are equal to mine.

I’ve learned a lot along the way, and will continue to learn even more.

I have three sons two of which are also S.A.L. members of Post 14 Fairfield. Although one lives in Arizona, he’s quite interested in Maine’s goals.

I am Pepe to one Grandchild.

Along trail as I’ve traveled. I have met many people and made many friends as well.

The project I have chosen for this year is the homeless vet’s project. I have challenged the American Legion Auxiliary President to raise more then my E-board.

She has also chosen this as her project and has accepted the challenge.

If your squadron would like a visit from me or any Detachment of Maine officer

Please don’t hesitate to email me or give me a call at 314-0222.

In closing I’d like to remind everyone, it’s all about those who served, and continue to do so to this day.

My motto I’ve chosen for the year is. NUMBERS DON'T LIE.

THANK YOU,

Brian Danforth

Commander, Detachment of Maine
