U.S. ARMY

The U.S. Army is made up of the most dedicated, most respected soldiers in the world. These soldiers protect America's Freedoms while serving at home and abroad, and they are always prepared to defend the nation in times of need.

U.S. MARINES

We are soldiers of the sea, providing forces and detachments to naval ships and shore operations. We are global leaders, developing expeditionary doctrine and innovations that set the example, and leading other countries' forces and agencies in the multinational military operations. These unique capabilities make us "First to Fight", and our nations first line of defense.

U.S. NAVY

America's Navy is a force as relevant today as it's been historically significan for the last 238 years. The times may change, the threats may become more obscure, the complex nature of 21st century life may make the demand for such presence less obvious. However, now more than ever, the Navy is something to be aware of Something to be thankful for. Something to be proud of.

Comrades

 As most know we lost a Comrade on January 2, 2022.  James Neighbors passed away peacefully after a short terminal illness.  To say he will be missed is an understatement.  Please keep James' family in your thoughts and prayer.

On a much happier note, the Post has achieved 100%+ membership as of December 30, 2022. We are on track to earning All-State and All-American Post this year.  Great work by all Post members to achieve this status.

Hope to see everyone at the Monthly meeting on January 11th at 7:00pm.
