The publisher was at RCGS on Tuesday to meet with the staff. He told us that we did not have enough prepaid orders for the book (a preorder is cheaper: $40.00 + $5.00 more if it has to be shipped or mailed). The book when it is finished and been to the publisher will cost $47.50 + $5.00 S/H. People who sponsor a book and get one in this cost have not come up to expectations. I think this amount is $135.00. If the staff has done all the work on the book, don't you think someone out there could afford to buy a book early? If you can, it would be a great help to know we won't go in the hole. Please tell all your relatives about the book and the names of the family members who will be represented in the book. Thank you to all our veterans and to those of you who have already bought your book and/or sponsored a book. RCGS Staff
