Upset Veteran
Dear Editor: With all the parades they have in this town, and most of them are stupid, I can’t believe that no one hardly shows up at the Veterans Day parade.
That tells me a lot about the people that live here.

Tribal Council Election
Dear Editor: I would like to thank those who voted for me in the Sitka Tribal Council election on Nov. 11. I would also like to thank all who turned out to vote. It is important that your voice is heard and as you can see by the results this past election your vote counts.
I would like to see more people get out to vote at the next election and exercise your rights as tribal citizens. We have a lot of work to do this upcoming year and I promise to do my best to serve our Tribal citizens and do what I feel is best for the tribe and be open to your input. Thank you again and look forward to serving you as a Tribal council member.
Wilbur Brown, Sitka
Thanks, Emblem Club
Dear Editor: On behalf of the Marine Corps League of Sitka, Robert B. Johnstone Detachment, I wish to convey a sincere appreciation and thank you to the Sitka Emblem Club. The decorations in the Agave Restaurant for the Marine Corps’ 239th birthday celebration certainly made the occasion festive and meaningful. Not only did the club decorate the venue, they also bought and delivered the beautiful birthday cake that is part of any birthday gathering but an especially significant part of the Corps’ tradition. We appreciate the time, resources and effort exerted to celebrate this very special day in our Marine Corps history.
