VFW posts exude generosity to latest generation of vets
Article Abstract:
The troops are sent care packages and families are given help at the various VFW posts set up to maintain the Military Family Support Center for soldiers fighting the war and also those that have returned injured. The VFW posts have raised cash and donations, have built handicapped-accessible homes and are giving ample support so that the returning soldier feels wanted and cared after the battle they have fought for the society.

Pheasant hunt benefits disabled vets
Article Abstract:
Pat Mcgrath, District 6 commander conceived South Dakota's first pleasure hunt for disabled vets as a means of thanking them for what they sacrificed in war and for the inspiration they had in civilian life. It is easy for the American public to forget the wounded after they returned home and it was the obligation to keep the memory of the service alive and to recognize what was done with occasional community sponsored events.
