Many of you know Chuck Kindle - whether that's by name, or in the flesh. Many of you also know that he has dedicated many, many years of his life (and his wife Kathy's) to the North-South Skirmish Association and the Northwest Territory (NWT).

This award is a small token of the NWT's appreciation to Chuck, for those years of service.

The Certificate of Appreciation presented to Chuck.

Chuck has served in many capacities - including:

• NWT Regional Inspector

• NWT Regional Commander

• N-SSA National Deputy Commander

• N-SSA National Commander

Chuck and Kathy have also, for many, many moons - put together the National medals that you all love winning!

So, "Thank you Chuck!". The many years of dedicated service have not gone unnoticed! We appreciate you (and Kathy)! I can honestly say that I don't recall very many times that I've ever seen you slightly weepy-eyed - so this was a touching moment to catch on camera!

Send your thanks to Chuck directly.

Many thanks also go to Pete Zahner (11th Indiana) for the use of his fine photographs!
