COMMANDER'S COMMENT MAY 2018
Comrades and Auxiliary
VFW Post 445 and its Auxiliary are commemorative Partners of The United States of America Vietnam War Commemoration. We have committed to holding two events each year through 2020 honoring our Vietnam Veterans.
In April our ceremony was highlighted by remarks from former Navy Commander Mike Hadbavny, Flight Nurse Jacki Hall and Gunnery Sargent James Gregory. (pictures below) The formal ceremony included placing of the POW/MIA flag by American Legion Post 147 Honor Guard.
At the end of our formal ceremonies Vietnam Veterans and their Families and guests were invited to enjoy an old-fashioned ‘Pig Pickin’ prepared by our newly adopted Pit Crew. Our Auxiliary provided Chicken, Brats and Dogs along with Pasta and Potato salads.
Thank y’all for great Comradeship, good food and your help in making this event a success.
God Bless America and the VFW
Jim
