As Junior Vice Mike Stewart has stepped down, Department Commandant Bill Cona made the necessary appointments to keep the house intact.

George LaMont of Brooksville has moved from his position as Judge Advocate to serve as the Department Junior Vice Commandant.  Filling the position of Judge Advocate is Scott Westervelt of Middleburg.  Scott is an outstanding energetic Marine who currently serves as Commandant for his detachment and District 3 Vice Commandant.

Also, Janis Beale of Palm Harbor has been appointed Paymaster.  I have met Janis is she is a spectacularly pleasant person.  The Department's financial records will be in great hands.

As a detachment, we want to see our Department level staff managing the League with competence and confidence.  With these recent appointments, we have a good team in place going into the future.
