Class Memorial Articles (MA) Project

 

MA Project:

• Led by Project Coordinator (Jack Porter).

• Assisted by the MA Project Committee. 

• A volunteer from each cadet company is the MA Liaison (MAL).

• Writing of individual MAs are led by Action Coordinators (AC).

 

MA Liaison:

• Obtains an Action Coordinator (AC) for each deceased company mate. ACs may be from a different cadet company due to service or post-service relationships.

• Coaches AC as necessary to produce a meaningful MA for TAPS.

 

Action Coordinator:

• Assumes responsibility for completion of MA.

• Usually family members and/or others do most research and writing with help from AC and/or other classmates.

• Occasionally the AC does most research and writing.

 

Recording your own MA Data:

• MA efforts are greatly reduced when deceased classmates have assembled their own memorial information using a format such as the Simplified Guide for Recording Own MA Data found at the beginning of the How to Proceed page. Narratives are also appreciated.

• Wives and other family members can be especially helpful with this MA effort.

 

Other ways you can assist with MA Project:

• Insure that your Company Guidon Bearer has your contact data.

• Volunteer as an Action Coordinator.

• Check MAs Needed page and provide information for an MA.

• Check Our Class Eulogy Page and contribute eulogies where appropriate.

• Encourage others to contribute to success of MA Project.
