7 December 20, 2011 Season's Greetings! On behalf of the National Executive Committee and the staff at the American Society of Military Comptrollers National Headquarters, we would like to wish you all a happy and safe holiday season. This is the time of year to reflect upon our accomplishments and set our goals for the New Year. It is a time to remember those, including ASMC members, who are working to defend our freedoms. It is also the time when we open our hearts to those less fortunate. We are committed to that philanthropic sentiment and ask that our chapters continue their efforts providing community service during this holiday time and throughout the year. Looking ahead, it is clear that the New Year will bring with it new challenges and initiatives. We remain resolved to strengthening ASMC's presence as a valuable resource focused on assisting its members with their professional growth. We are thankful to our many national and chapter volunteers who dedicate themselves toward this goal and are truly fortunate to have members with such great dedication. Thank you for all your hard work. Again, happy holidays to you all from the ASMC. Sincerely, Al Tucker ASMC Executive Director Terri McKay ASMC National President
