The original Post Officers were reelected to serve an additional year. 

June saw Post QM Darin Combs elected as Department Commander as Post Commander Ken Swierzewski appointed as Department Adjutant

June also saw QM/Adj Combs elected as Grand SVC and Commander Swierzewski elected as Grand Council Member District III. 

July:  Post Commander Swierzewski, Post QM/Adj Combs and Post SVC Malott all attended the National Convention in Reno as well as the Supreme Scratch also in Reno. Past Supreme Commander C. Marty Ellingwood nominated our SVC Jim Malott for the high office of Supreme JVC for the 2016 year.  We wish him good luck and will be campaigning for him.

Post 12109 continued a mission originally started  by Dave Teets (Post 10033) to help out our Comrades from Taiwan and purchase a box of Buddy Poppys from them.

The Post experienced our first death with the untimely demise of our Post Chaplain Chris Burks in a car accident in Korea.
