Good After everyone in this great Priory of The Calvary Cross. I come today bearing amazing news. To day I have the honor to announce a new member. This member is from the great "Cotton State" known as Alabama. Our new is Charles Van Hall. He likes to be called Dirk. So here is what he has to say about himself.

This member is from the great "Cotton State" known as Alabama. Our new is Charles Van Hall. He likes to be called Dirk. So here is what he has to say about himself.
Were I living in the 12th Century I most likely would have been a Templar Cleric. Raised by two teachers in Iowa I was fascinated by the Templar Order’s place in history. Around 50 years ago I met a high ranking Templar Knight when I shared a train cabin with a distinguished Danish professor traveling from Germany to France during my first tour in the Army. I noticed the Templar Cross on a binder and asked him about it. We had a great conversation on the extended trip.
As it is I have gone through life accumulating more higher education than any three persons need. I grew up in a Calvinist family and was awarded a full scholarship to Coe College and on to Presbyterian Seminary. Instead, at the recommendation of my guidance counselor, I elected to attend the University of Iowa that had a very extensive library and more study options. I am unsure if I made the right choice.
I am a retired U.S. Army soldier, Department of Defense civilian and Florida High School science teacher. As a 71 year old I am certainly becoming physically feeble, but I still have a desire to devote the time I have left to the Knights Templar.
So please give Charles a hardly warm Templar welcome.
