Because I've known NMA President Terry Chesson since 1977, we talk on the phone during year between reunions. We discuss the old days in Newport, shipmates, children, the lunacies committed by whatever U.S. president happens to be in office.
When our talks turn, as they will, to the Navy Musicians Association, I am always reminded of how much work our officers put in to making the NMA work. They meet during the year, run up phone bills and spent countless hours so that we may have a few days of camaraderie and music every year
Despite this, all members of the NMA Board of Directors have agreed to serve another term. The nomination to reelect the entire slate of officers was made and seconded.
The "aye" vote was resounding, there were no "noes.
Our officers were reelected by a unanimous vote. In consideration of their willingness to continue to serve, we now subject them to another few years of ceaseless complaining, bitching, moaning, questioning, harping, kvetching, grousing and otherwise maintaining the great traditions of Navy music.
