[Dialogue] Letters after name

[Don Bushman]

Lotsa letters
HDP-human Development Project
HRM-Human Resurgence Mission
NRM-NSV
GA-Global Academy
TM76
GRA-Global Research Assembly
LCX-Local Church Experiment
As well as others-
However, something comes to m mind about getting the job done no matter who
gets the credit.
And
ATP as I Zollars saying “ATP all the pipple “

Somehow I think with the branded iron cross on our foreheads we  don’t need
letters after our name-that and our choice to be POG.

We did much as a corporate body. JWM kept looking for ten iron men and I
would look at what we have accomplished in our dispersed body and announce
we have ten times ten times ten, probably even more.
