Operation Just Cause...                                              ...for as long as it takes



Mike Benge, Co-Chairman of the Board of Operation Just Cause
Ted Guy Jr. Named to OJC Board of Directors

from Gunny

I would like to take this opportunity to announce that former POW Mike Benge has accepted the position of Co-Chairman of the Board of Operation Just Cause.

By unanimous agreement between Mike and the Board of Directors, Colonel Ted Guy will continue to occupy the other Co-Chair. If that seems unusual, it is. But I can tell you all without reservation, that Ted's influence is always there in everything we do.

Steve, Dennis and I can hear him telling us which way to go every time we have to make a policy decision. That will not change. Mike and Ted were very close. Ted often told me stories about Mike's courage and tenacity while a prisoner in Hanoi. I can think of no one more suited for the job.

Mike's story is a particularly moving one. I encourage you all to read it at:

Mike Benge, POW

I also have the pleasure to announce that Ted Guy Jr has agreed to accept a position on the OJC Board of Directors.
