CC President speaks at graduation

PRESIDENTIAL VISIT — CC National President Bill Hauptfleisch was guest speaker for the last graduation ceremony of 2012 at Defense Information School on Dec. 20. The former DINFOS (and Lowry AFB) instructor addressed the Public Affairs Qualification Course (the old “PAO” course, which began adding SNCOs to the class in 2007). Prior to the ceremony, our fearless leader presented complimentary one-year USMCCCA memberships to graduating Marines – including three former Leathernecks. Pictured are (front row, l-r) 2nd Lt.
