New Kansas Battalion is formed. 

1st Kansas Battalion

The Kansas Battalion was formed after 4 of the 5 unit C.O.'s meet in Emporia for elections on April 7th.  C.O. Stowers was elected as the C.O. for the Battalion.  C.O. Anderson, from Tornado Alley was elected to the X.O. position.  The vote was unanimous.  The C.O. and X.O. plan on attending the other unit's meetings and working on setting up other units around the state.

Our Kansas Battalion is seeking a name.  If you have ideas, please forward them via e-mail to C.O. Stowers @ saltydawgym@yahoo.com.
