This is where we get to brag on the good Americans who make great things happen for their troops.
SOT has a Support Our Troops! motor vehicle specialty plate in Alabama. Every five years organizations with a specialty plate must gain its reissuance before the Legislative Oversight Committee. This year SOT’s number came up and in our preparation we found that everyone on the committee was new to us, there were some new procedures, and there were new options for greater benefit to the troops that we could put in place as part of the reissuance process. Which is where Mr. Logan Gray of the Southern Strategy Group comes in. SOT called him and he worked on all the local preparatory work beforehand. He saved SOT a great deal of time and money in travel and other costs catching us up with the committee members and determining and organizing what did and did not need to be efforted beforehand. On behalf of America’s troops and their families, thank-you Mr. Gray, a US Army veteran.
