Moorestown Rotary Club Donates $1,000 To Nam Knights Of America

MOORESTOWN, NJ — The Moorestown Breakfast Rotary Club recently donated $1,000 to the Nam Knights of America, the club announced. The Nam Knights serve those who fought for our country. At the same time, Nam Knights of America - Delaware Valley Chapter President Brit (Sarge) Henderson and Moorestown Patrolman George Hubel spoke about the Nam Knights and the Police Unity Tour.

Henderson spoke about the history of the Knights. In the summer of 1989 a small group of Harley-riding Vietnam War vets who were also police officers formed the group.

Jack Quigley, now retired Undersheriff of The Bergen County Sheriff's Department, founded the New Jersey Chapter. He served as a platoon sergeant with the 11th Motor Transport Battalion, First Marine Division.

The Nam Knights’ mission is to honor police officers and members of the armed forces who lost their lives in the line of duty, assist veterans and police officers in their time of need and promote awareness through various fundraisers.

There are now 69 chapters in 16 states, Washington D.C. and two Canadian provinces, with hundreds of members made up of veterans of all eras, law enforcement personnel and a few special and dedicated "patriots."

"The club was formed to recapture the brotherhood its founding members shared while serving in Southeast Asia, and to help other veterans of all wars who are unable to help themselves,” Quigley said. "The Nam Knights Motorcycle Club continues to grow and thrive due to the extraordinary dedication of its members, their families and our benevolent supporters."

The Rotary Breakfast Club meets every Wednesday morning, 7:15 a.m. at the Moorestown Community House located at 16 East Main Street. Guests are welcome to arrive 15 minutes early and have a cup of coffee to socialize before the meeting.

Anyone interested in joining the Rotary Club should contact Past President and Board Member Scott Aschoff at scott.aschoff@icloud.com.
