Very interesting article appeared in DAGON NEWSLETTER several year ago: RECRUITING
The future of the Association is in the hands of the veterans of recent years. It is apparent that in order to maintain status we have reached in our Association we need to increase our membership from veterans of more recent periods of service. The Association leadership requests your ideas and support identifying other prospective members. After two year check the stats!

ANNUAL MEMBERS
paying their dues have submitted contributions to sponsor several new Active Duty Soldier members from the current active battalions 1-15 and 3-15 Infantry. These new members will be selected and identified by the Command Sergeant Majors and brought on board as contributions are received.
All members are encouraged to sponsor Active Duty members at any time. For each $10.00 contribution an Active Duty soldier can be brought on the rolls for two years.
Where did this get us? again look at the stats.

Are we beating a dead horse? This articles appeared in our April, 2012 DRAGON: 

Would you like to sponsor membership for Active Duty Soldiers for $10.00 contribution an Active duty soldier can be brought on the rolls for two years. make contribution to the Association Treasurer, address shown on page 2.
Check the current membership numbers for the active duty soldiers -  1/15th (26),  3/15th ( 8). 
A privates pay is over $17,000.00**  Basic pay only
and does not include bonuses, allowances and other benefits. 

**Pay for Private (E1) will be slightly lower for the first four months of service.

  Apparently membership in the 15th infantry regiment is a real hard sell for the active duty leadership and our current leaders. ~ Hope to see everyone at the Regimental dinner to hear your comments and input. Webmaster
