Want to thank a veteran? Here is your chance…

April 17, 2010 · Posted in Life Happens 

A little off topic, but every now and then life does happen…

To all those who enjoy the privilege of living in America. There is a cost to this freedom and prosperity and it is paid for by the sacrifices of those who proudly served and continue to serve. We always hear the cliche “Thank a veteran.”… I say here is your chance…

Passing along a note from a colleague and friend:“My name is Dale Ross and I have a true friend of mine that is soon to die with Cancer. His name is John Alapai, he is a retired US Army Command Sergeants Major (CSM) E-9 with over 24 years of service. His last assignment was with the 1st Battalion, 34th Armor, 1st Infantry Division, Fort Riley Kansas. He was the CSM for 1/34th AR during the Gulf War (1991). His birthday is 07 May and we are not sure if he is going to make that date. All I am asking if you could send him a birthday card and thank him for his 24 years of service, he also served in Vietnam where he earned the Purple Heart.

His address is:John Alapai
PO Box 106
Milford, Kansas 66514

For further information please feel free to contact me at dale@ alphaten.com and address 743 N Russell Street, Portland, Tn 37148.Thank You!”

When IT Is Your Company’s “Piggy Bank”

When IT Is Your Company’s “Piggy Bank” By Vaughan Merlyn First, my apologies – this is old news! But I was talking to a CIO last week and he made a statement I’ve heard many times over the years: “The company views IT as ‘the piggy bank’ – it’s a place they can reliably come to when [...
