Supreme Seam Squirrel Message


Listen up Cooties,
As your Supreme Seam Squirrel for 2024-2025, I Robbie A.
Normand pledge my unwavering support to our lousy organization and our parent organization, the VFW. I am here to serve the membership and I am truly grateful that you have selected me to lead. Our strength is in our numbers, and I look forward to another year of growth.

First and foremost, we are all members of the VFW, and we only grow our seams from the membership of our parent organization. I applaud those that have great relationships with the VFW and implore those that don’t have the best
relationship to focus on what we can do to bridge the gap and build more cohesive communities. This goes for relations with other organizations as well.  Be it the VFWA, MOCA, or the many other veterans service organizations. We all have the same goal, together we form a stronger front.

Furthermore, I ask that we communicate amongst ourselves.  Grand Commanders reach out to each other and coordinate events.  No grand operates in a vacuum.  I ask that you communicate and try to coordinate events
so that others can participate.  The VFW does a great job a building a combined “Class mentality” amongst Department commanders.

Lastly, 2025 marks the 100th anniversary of the National Home and there will be many events throughout the year to celebrate this momentous occasion.  If you have never visited this would be a great opportunity to make the trek to the National home.  Also, if you’ve only been to Cootie Christmas, it gives an excuse to visit when it’s not cold.

My best wishes to all for a very lousy year to come!

Yours in LOTCS,

Robbie A. Normand
Supreme Seam Squirrel
2024-2025
