8. ATTENTION RETIREES!
O n April 20-21, 2012, the North Carolina National Guard Association will conduct its 51st Annual
Convention at the Myrtle Beach Marriott Resort and Spa at Grand Dunes, in Myrtle Beach, SC.
Recently, a group got together to discuss the feasibility of hosting a Retiree Hospitality Room
at the upcoming convention. As many of you know, the hospitality rooms are an integral part of the
festivities, and this being the 51st Annual Convention, it would be nice to have a hospitality room hosted
by the retirees. This initiative would provide us an opportunity to maintain connectivity between active
Guardsmen and those of us who are retired.
We are excited about this idea, but as you know, it takes money and volunteers to fund and operate
a first class hospitality room. The purpose of this article is to request your support. We would like to
request you consider a donation to support this event in the amount of $10 to $25 dollars. Checks may
be made payable to: Retiree Hospitality Room – 2012 and mailed to the Association office at 7410
Chapel Hill Road, Raleigh, NC 27607 no later than March 15th in order for us to begin serious planning.
If you can attend the convention and would be willing to assist in the setup, operation of and cleanup
of the area, please include a note along with your donation.
Our Association has provided many benefits for our membership over the years. We enjoy the benefit
of the State Retirement Plan every month! Please seriously consider sending a donation today, and come
have a great time and make this project a success.
Please feel free to contact those listed below if you have any questions, suggestions or concerns.

CSM (Ret) Pat Cardwell
By CSM (Ret) Bob Suber
Command Sergeant Major (Retired) Patricia Griffin Cardwell, the North Carolina
Army National Guard’s first female Command Sergeant Major, died 7 December
2011 of complications from cancer. Pat was a native of Williamston and enlisted
in the Guard in December 1979 after a short period of service in the USAR. She
joined the military technician ranks in November 1981 as a military pay clerk
and entered the AGR program as a legal clerk in May 1984. Pat had continued
assignments in the personnel/administrative field, completing her service as the
Human Resources Office Sergeant Major at JFHQ, Raleigh.
After graduating in 2002 from the United States Army Sergeants Major Course
(Resident), Pat was promoted to Sergeant Major in April 2004. She made National
Guard history in October 2006 when she became the first female in the North
Carolina Army National Guard to be appointed to the rank of Command Sergeant
Major. She served as CSM of the 217th Human Resources Battalion until her
retirement in December 2007. CSM Cardwell led the way for enlisted women in leadership positions in the NCARNG.
A lifetime member of the North Carolina National Guard Association, Pat is survived by her mother, Mrs. Betty
Griffin of Williamston, and two brothers.
