It was a real privilege to have the Rev. Jill Robb Denison Paulsen in attendance at the 2010 National Conference and to have her address the General Assembly.  Here are links to that presentation:

She also attended the PD seminar and was very affable and open to questions.

Chappie, thanks for posting that!  I was watching the live stream and I had to leave my computer about half way through her speech.  I was wondering how she would end it.  Very interesting.

History is more important than we can now know. I understand this is a strange comment as history is already fixed. However, life and all of its enterprises are long shots. A fine marksmen practices the use of both the rear and front sight. I am glad we are finding and fixing some of our rear sights. It better assures our shots downrange will be true.

Great speech. Good of the members who tracked her down, brought her to the convention, and invited her back into the family of CAP.

To find those who knew our forebear's best... is a good deed done for us all.
