                         Armed Forces
                                 Day
                           Celebration

                      

Well things are starting to really heat up. July is here and the summer roles on, but I want to take You back to the mid to late May for a great event.

The DuPage Amateur Radio Club held an on-the-air special event commemorating Armed Forces Day. On Saturday, May 19, from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., at Veterans Memorial Park in Westmont, IL, there was a number of World War II radios in operation and displayed, along with other stations and modes of communication. A great way to celebrate armed Forces Day.

Armed Forces Day is a day to salute sharply to all of the men and women in all branches of the service who protect our country and you. They can be called upon at a moment's notice to perform a risky and perilous mission for freedom and country. They train diligently both physically and mentally so they will be prepared to prevail in any mission they face.

The DuPage Amateur Radio Club is group of individuals in The Chicagoland Area who celebrate the art of Ham Radio. Ham Radio or Amateur Radio can be a fun hobby as well as vital resource during emergency situations, especially when the power goes out. The DuPage Amateur Radio Club is made of all different members of the Community and they all come together because of their love for Ham Radio. DARC has monthly meetings and provides help to those individual wishing to get Ham Radio FCC Certified.
