I wonder if that isn't because they get their volunteers from military spouses or from people who live in the area.

Yes they have volunteers doing a lot of the work. I was a paid employee working on a Marine base.

I'm sure you did a wonderful job for those marines and their family.

I just had a phone call BTW from the local Red Cross chapter. She tried to clarify the situation, but really, it only got worse. She tried to tell me that it was because all the songs had the word "GOD" in them, and that the teacher overreacted. Then she said that the Orange County had apologized.

She did say that here in Texas they would never have this problem, which I believe. She also told me that they had a conference call on Sunday with 50 other Red Cross officials, and everyone was upset over this and the Orange County Chapter. I also believe that!

We have come to a sad state of affairs when GOD can't be used in more than one song in the name of appeasement and political correctness.
