Well, that's a good question, and it's going to be a long answer.
Our organization has a membership of just over a thousand. There are six organizations. The Legion has approximately 450,000; the ANAVETS, 36,000 to 38,000; the NCVA, I don't know--that's a composite of various organizations. We have a thousand; CPVA, the peacekeepers, have a thousand; the Gulf War vets, just under a thousand.
But it's not a thousand, because I'm a legionnaire. I'm a member of the ANAVETS. I belong to three different regimental associations. I belong to the airborne association. It's a lot of osmosis and a lot of contacts out there, and they know that the six representatives are on these various committees and we're representing their interests.
We would love to have a membership of 15,000. We don't have that. It's not a big problem to us. But we'd like to think we represent all of those who have served on peace support operations—and I used that term intentionally instead of “peacekeeping”—throughout the years, be it 150,000.... If somebody has a problem, they're going to come to us.
There are only six of us on these various committees, and somebody has to represent their interests.
