Gentlemen of the ACWGC, General Joe Meyer is currently serving as Interim Union Chief of the Army, filling in for General DS Walter's term after his resignation last November. It is time to elect a Union Chief of the Army for a full 2 year term. I encourage all eligible Union officers to begin considering whether or not you wish to run for the CoA position or perhaps nominate someone else for it. Club Rules concerning this election are: 3.3.4.2 Eligibility 3.3.4.2.1 Candidates for Cabinet Secretary or Club President must hold the rank of Colonel or above. To be eligible for a CoA position, a member must hold the rank of Lieutenant General or above in their respective Army. 3.3.4.1.2 In the election of a CoA, only members at the rank of Lieutenant General or General at the time the election Voting period begins may vote for the CoA representing their respective military group.

The nomination period has closed, with the only nominee being General Joe Meyer. Pursuant to Club Rules, General Meyer is elected by acclimation to the Union Chief of the Army office. Congrats, General Meyer! 3.3.4.1.7 In the event only one candidate has been nominated by the end of the nominating period, that candidate will be elected by acclimation and no vote will be necessary. REgards, The Election Committee |

Thank you, gentlemen! It was an extremely tiring election campaign aand I am glad that it has come to a conclusion. All of that riding about to the outlying commands for speechifying has left me dry of tongue and mentally exhausted. I should now seek to correct my condition by fully draining each glass that I can reach!

A bit late to this, but congratulations, Joe. Or my sympathies? Anyway thank you for your willingness to serve. I think I said it before, but I'll say it again: The word is "acclamation" rather than "acclimation" (which means getting used to a foreign climate, which doesn't really apply to Joe since he has already been on the cabinet ). It's a typo in the rules and the cabinet should use its authority to simply correct it. |
