This year’s SAR (NSSAR) President General’s trip is in France. Our compatriot, Rob Welch, is on this trip and will share photos and brief comments on the trip as time permits. We will also capture images from Facebook posts as we find them and add them to this post as a “travel log” to document this great trip.
