Garden State Detachment #1273. Its detachment has met since 1977 — Flemington, NJ. The charter came in the years after Vietnam and the years that followed, and the members who stayed treated the monthly meeting as a standing promise: show up, look after one another, and leave the town a little better.
People point to the detachment for the Memorial Day observance and for the quieter help that never makes a program — Flemington. The members would rather be useful than famous, which is why the hall still smells like coffee on meeting night.
Meetings are Meeting Day/Time: 1st Monday, 7:00 PM, at the hall — Flemington. This page is a sample so neighbors can see the shape of the work. The group itself has not claimed the page, so the stories here are an illustration, written in the voice the detachment might use.

What the notebook says so far
Late summer the detachment looked back at the notebook.

This note is a sample of how the detachment might tell that year — Flemington, NJ.
