Restructuring of Division 24

Effective immediately,  the former flotillas in Saginaw, Flint, and Tawas are now detachments of the Bay City Flotilla.  Unit numbers are:

091-24-01-001 - Flint Detachment
091-24-01-002 - Saginaw Detachment
091-24-01-003 - Tawas Detachment

All detachment members are full voting member of the Bay City Flotilla.  Detachment leaders will be designated at a later time. 

Lifelines

According to the Oxford English Dictionary lifelines (in the nautical sense) are "A line or rope intended to be instrumental in saving life, such as a line strongly secured along a vessel to which sailors may hook their safety harnesses."  The Lifelines section of this web site (the button on the left hand navigation panel or click here) has the most recent information from national, district, or division about changes in policy, new programs, etc. that we receive via many sources (ALLAUX messages, etc.)  These will be shown in order received (newest on top) and will be available for 90 to 120 days.

You will need to log into the web site to view the lifelines section.
