Here is one of the earlier e-mails from Capt. Zeb to the volunteers who began the Cavalla Historical Foundation. This decisiveness and energy was typical of Zeb, he had focus and he knew how to get things done.
Quote:
To Exec. Committee:
Attached are the Articles of incorporation for the CAVALLA Historical Foundation. I did not sign this last Sat. since I wanted input from all of you. Please look this over and be set to suggest changes and to decide who should be on the board at our next meeting. We need to get this done ASAP since this is what's holding us up from starting our fundraising with the various foundations. I do not agree with Art.13 and told Renee' to have the lawyer change it to have a simple majority vote able to take action.
Dave Stoops, please set the next Exec. Committee meeting as early as you can get a majority of us together--this week for sure. If it's not convenient to hold at your home pick a spot. Other items I think we should cover include the representatives on the board from the Dallas group, the questions raised about painting inside CAVALLA, and any other items any of you want to bring up.

The mention of the Dallas group is significant. This group of SubVets would venture down once a month. Out of this group came our current curator and the main engine behind the day-to-day work on Cavalla, Chief John McMichael.
