Tin Can Sailors

The other day I got my renewal notice from the Tin Can Sailors Organization and that reminded me that some of you may not belong to this fine organization. I personally look forward to getting the quarterly newsletter and read it from cover to cover. You can learn about the organization by clicking on this link: http://www.destroyers.org/index.html
The following is an excerpt from their site and it also contains a link to get an application.

We also welcome relatives of destroyer veterans, historians, model builders, and anyone who has an interest in preserving destroyers as museums. Only destroyer veterans, however, are eligible to serve on the board of directors.

The suggested annual contribution is $25. Tin Can Sailors is a bargain!
You'll receive a great44-page newspaper four times a year.
You can attend our many events across the county.
You will be helping to support seven museum/memorial ships that serve as memorials to sailors.
Tin Can Sailors is recognized by the IRS under Section 501(c)(3), therefore, contributions to Tin Can Sailors may be tax deductible.
You'll receive free or reduced price admission to many ships and maritime museums of the Historic Fleet .
We offer a money-back guarantee on membership contributions and Ship's Store purchases. You can't lose!
So join the thousands of destroyer veterans who are already members of Tin Can Sailors!
