Our Building and Our Veterans During the last year, those of us who attend the regular monthly meetings have looked at our current building situation and raised a few questions. How can we afford to keep this building and how can we raise money to improve it? Well my fellow Legionnaires that got the ball rolling. Before you knew it a Building Committee was formed and the process of enhancing this wonderful old building started to take place. The Committee: John Barvenik Chairman, Jim Cushman, George Masten, Arnie Plastridge and Brian Chevalier have begun planning ways to improve the building. Through the efforts of these men and their volunteering of their time and knowledge the process has begun. There are plans for Fund-raisers and other means to raise money for the Post. We all agree that the survival of our Post is based on New Members. We need to find and get the Vets who live in our community to join forces with us. We also agreed that we need a home for all Vets to be able to come to and feel comfortable. I am pleased to say that We are working towards this goal and it’s because of the volunteers like these men. Support The Troops and God Bless America! *SPECIAL NOTICE* WANTED ALL VETERAN’S We’re looking for Veterans from all branches of the service who served during any of our country’s conflicts.

AS WELL AS WAR ON TERRORISM VETS. Hundreds of thousands of our World War II Veterans will gather in our nation’s capital this Memorial Day as a grateful nation pays homage to the WWII generation. The unveiling of the long awaited World War Two Memorial will host Veterans from all over the country. Post 35 will honor our members here on the Seacoast as well. Several WWII members of Post 35 will make the long trek to Washington DC to partake in the festivities. Among them are: Ken Buell, Ted Kopanski, John McInnis and Ansell Palmer. It has been said that the WWII generation was the last great generation of our Nation. It seems to be a long overdue fitting tribute to these true American heroes. Meanwhile, our nation’s newest generation of Veteran’s, the War on Terrorism Vets will be equally honored here on the seacoast this Memorial Day as we pay respect and honor to our nation’s fallen heroes. We ask that all citizens come out this Memorial Day to pay the respect that these fallen heroes deserve. No matter what political party you belong to, we need to come together on this sacred day and honor the brave Americans who gave their lives for Freedom, and to once again, acknowledge those who are in harms way. Our fight against Terrorism is ongoing and the troops need our support. There are several families from the Seacoast who have loved ones overseas. Remember our battle cry “POST 35 REMEMBERS SEPTEMBER 11th”. Let us all STAND UP AND SUPPORT OUR TROOPS! These brave young men and women. They’ve earned it. “For Those Who Fought For It, Freedom Has a Taste The Protected Will Never Know” Author unknown, found written on an ammo crate at Khe Sanh , RVN 1968 |
