Reminder to everyone that the next meeting is one week from today.
We will have a short business meeting followed by Marion Juskuv AA1VU giving a
presentation on Air Force MARS (Military Auxiliary Radio Service).
The Military Auxiliary Radio System (MARS) is a United States Department of
Defense sponsored program, established as a separately managed and operated
program by the United States Army, Navy, and Air Force. The program is a
civilian auxiliary consisting primarily of licensed amateur radio operators who
are interested in assisting the military with communications on a local,
national, and international basis as an adjunct to normal communications. The
MARS programs also include active duty, reserve, and National Guard units;
Navy, Marine Corps, and National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration ships,
and Coast Guard cutters and shore stations.
Come join us to learn more about MARS!
