We will be electing a new Post Adjutant this year. Here is the job description and responsibilities:
The adjutant shall have charge of and keep a full and correct record of all proceedings of all meetings, keep such records as the department and National Organizations may require, render reports of membership annually or when called upon at a meeting, and under direction of the commander handle all correspondence of the Post.
The adjutant is a lot like the 1st Sergeant in an US Army company. The adjutant assists the commander in the administration of the post. Membership takes most of your time. However, with the post’s new computer, online membership and the new post office this task will not be so time consuming.
