Please follow the included directions and fill it out in full then send it in with your first year new member fee to the Camp 7 Secretary-Traesurer. If you have any questions, please contact Henry C. Duquette. In accordance with the National SUVCW Congressional Charter, Camp 7 inducts up to 1/3 of its membership as Associates or "non-lineal Status" men NOT descended from a Union Civil War Veteran. Camp 7 inducts all men ages 14 and up. You do not have to be a Rhode Island resident to be a member of Camp 7. Civil War period uniforms are not required. Camp 7 also accepts "Out of State" candidates as well as Dual SUVCW Members. You do not need to be related to a "Rhode Island" Union Civil War Veteran to qualify as a Lineal or Hereditary Candidate for membership in R.I. SUVCW Elisha Dyer Camp No. 7. You cannot apply as an Honorary Status Member. Honorary Status Candidations are limited and awarded to outstanding citizens as well as the Adjutant General of the R.I. National Guard. But you can apply for Life Member Status, for the War Medal, or for the Military Service Medal, after your original RI SUVCW Camp 7 application has been approved. If you are interested in honoring America's Union Civil War Soldiers, Sailors, Marines, & Revenue Corps, please join us. |
