Re: Resending NAEMT bylaws

[Guest guest]

I agree with Wes...it is the same board members over and over again, what

about

the folks that work on committees and do other things for NAEMT? if they

can't break

into the board, they can't be an officer..I don't think that is right!

You don't know the secret handshake, and you don't have enough gold

braid and paramedals on your Captain Crunch uniform.

You DO have a Captain Crunch EMS dress uniform, don't you?? If not, go

get one!

You can't ever be a Grand Exalted Poobah of EMS without it.
