Seeking Volunteers to Help Promote Our Programs
The NCMF is looking for volunteers to help publicize the cryptologic programs we sponsor throughout the year. If you live in a retirement community, belong to a senior center, and/or visit other public places where events can be posted, please consider helping us spread the word. The upcoming NCMF General Membership Meeting & Annual Symposium on 17 October, which will focus on the Vietnam War, is a case in point. You can download a flyer about the event from the General Membership Meeting & Symposium page on our website. We can also send flyers via post or e-mail, or make them available at the foundation office. Please e-mail cryptmf@aol.com if you are able to help. We encourage you to tell friends and family about these interesting and valuable programs.
