By Jackie Carter

The Towamencin Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution hosted the NPHS AF JR ROTC PA-20062 at their October meeting held in the Indian Valley Public Library. Instructor Maj Mark Miller and three cadets: C/Lt Col Emily Blase, Group Commander; C/Maj Conor Thorson, Training & Evaluation Leader; and C/2d Lt Fahema Sultana, Inspector General Leader presented an interesting and informative program entitled “Creating Better Citizens for America”.

All three cadets were previously awarded the DAR ROTC Medal for their outstanding ability and achievement in high school. In addition to being in the top 25% of their class academically, recipients must demonstrate loyalty, patriotism, leadership and adherence to military discipline.

Towamencin Chapter Regent, Holly Hayick presented the group with copies of the DAR Flag Code Leaflet detailing rules on properly displaying the American flat and a subscription to the DAR magazine “American Spirit” to thank them for their presentation.
