Like I said in my text. I tried BOTH solutions, it is only commented out to 
show this. Yes I tried that
Format, I commneted out my @loop = GetOfficers(); and likewise the other bit in 
main menu.
The crux is my @loop = GetOfficers($self); doesn't work either!

        That's because you DIDN'T PASS ANYTHING to the GetOfficers() function.

        > sub mainmenu
        > {
        >  my $self = shift;

        You should be doing:

           my @loop = GetOfficers($self);
