She was very upset because her daughter, Kathy, received a letter from DC telling her that Terry Helvey, the sailor who killed Allen Schindler, will be going before a clemency board on Tuesday, July 11th at Ft. Leavenworth, Kansas. The letter was dated June 26th, but was just received today, July 7th. Her daughter tried to call to get more information, but everyone had left for the day. This is the second time in less than a year that Terry Helvey has gone before a clemency board without any notice being given to Mrs. Hadjys. She said she would be interested in going to Kansas, but she can't get any more information until Monday, which is the day before the hearing. I think it is important that we as gay veterans give this incident as much publicity as possible. If you have any access to other media, please pass this along. We have to let them know that we are here, and that we are always on guard. Jim Darby
