Funds for the ROTC chapter will be generated through the
association's UNO Annual Fund.
Donors to the UNO Annual Fund can designate 50 percent of their contribution
to the ROTC chapter while still receiving full benefits accorded all UNO
Annual Fund contributors.
Designations will defray the ROTC chapter's expenses
and fund the establishment of scholarships for Detachment 470 cadets. The
group also will host reunions and activities, including, for example, a
reunion during UNO's centennial celebration kickoff in October 2008.
Michael Kudlacz, a 1971 UNO graduate, will serve two
years as the chapter's inaugural president. Kudlacz served 31 years in the
U.S. Air Force, including a stint as the 55th wing commander at Offutt Air
Force Base. He retired as a major general in 2002. In 2006 he was the UNO
Alumni Association's chairman of the board. Other UNO graduate officers include
Harold Sage (1954), vice president; Syntha Judd Essex (1953; 1973),
secretary; and Maynard Tatelman (1954), treasurer.
Additional
chapter information will be provided on this site, in future issues of the
UNO Alum magazine and in the Detachment 470 newsletter Upper Echelon.
ROTC
alumni can register with the 470 Detachment and find additional information
