The Class of 1970 Executive Committee
would like members of our class to strongly consider making a tax deductible
donation to help complete the fund
raising for our Class Mine Detection Dog (MDD). Please see the note below from Classmate
Perry Baltimore on the status of classmate efforts to fund a Class of 1970 Mine
Detection Dog – let’s put the effort over the top with a final push!
“First a big “THANK YOU” to the 34
classmates who so far have contributed $15,700 toward our $25,000 goal to
sponsor a lifesaving mine detection dog (MDD) that will represent our USMA Class
of 1970 for years to come and serve on battlefields scarred with dangerous
explosives.
Another big “THANK YOU” to all others in
the class who are willing to help us, but haven’t yet had a chance to
contribute. Doing so now would be most appreciated, so that our 1970 Class
donation to the Marshall Legacy Institute (which has deployed over 200 valuable
dogs to severely contaminated countries) will coincide with the 50th
Anniversary of the Vietnam War.
Our Class Dog, in helping to clear
landmines and save lives in a war-torn country, will honor our four classmates
(Robert Brown, Richard Green, Mike Minor and Howard Steinfeld) who made the
ultimate sacrifice in Vietnam.
Again, no contribution is too large or
small. You can send cash or check (all tax-deductible) to the Marshall Legacy
Institute, 2425 Wilson Boulevard, Suite 240, Arlington, VA 22025, or donate
online at https://secure.qgiv.com/for/mli
Please be sure to answer “Please direct
my donation to:”
(Down Arrow to) “USMA ’70 MDD Campaign”
Thanks!

Vuksich, Young
