The
Chapter supported two projects in the Fall/Winter of
2011/2012. 1) For
the past two years, the USNA New
Mexico Alumni Chapter has supported the Wounded Warrior
Project through Terri Kreuger's efforts with Ooh La La Christmas in New Mexico. At the 2010 Army-Navy
game, Terri presented the project with a check for over $491,000.

Centennial
Year (2012) - click here

| In Memoriam:
The U.S. Naval Academy Alumni Association regrets to announce the loss
of Captain Daniel B. Bartle '06,
USMC on 19 January 2012 when his CH-53 Sea Stallion went down in
Helmand province, Afghanistan. The accident is believed to be due to
mechanical failure. Our deepest sympathies are with the Bartle Family
and the Class of 2006 during this challenging time. |

Where's our
Ship Model? Here's
the latest from Casey Jones re: the Chapter's sponsorship of the
Model Ship Project, as of 29 January 2012:
"I checked with Harry Davidson, the curator of the Cavalcade of Wings
Museum, and the construction of the USS Bataan, LHD-5 model has not yet
started. The modeler is finishing up a model of the LST
Bernalillo County this week and will begin work on our model, when that
one is done.
"I asked
Harry to let me know, when the Bataan has progressed to a point, where
we could take an “in progress” photo of our ship, and he said that he
would do that. The builder lives in the South Valley, so it
should not be hard to get a picture of the model." |
