Nicole from the Circle K was here as a guest, and Paul brought his wife Kay. Dan also brought his son Danny as a guest.

Tim introduced Major Dan O'Neill as our speaker. Dan spoke about his preparation to go to Afghanistan last year, as well as his time over there. He really wanted to thank all the employers who make accommodations for their staff who are members of the Reserve or the Guard to take time for their deployments.

When Dan arrived in his facility in Afghanistan, his first order of business was to clean and paint, so between patients that's where he and his assistants started. His patients included British, Spaniards, Americans, Canadians, and Belgians, and re[presented the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines and various Special Forces, including a dog in need of a root canal!

While he was in Afghanistan, he took part in weekly medical trainings and some mass casualty exercises involving the entire base.
