VFW 12136 Post Meeting February 15, 2025

The next Post Monthly Meeting will be February 15, 2025 at Brews Tavern, 09:30 AM, Indian Land SC.

Membership

As yesterday's defenders of freedom, we want to welcome today's military service members into our ranks to become part of our elite group.

Veteran Outreach

Coming home doesn't mean the battle is over. With over 10 times the amount of veterans lost to suicide than to combat operations in the same time period, there has never been a more important time to TAKE A STAND and DO something to support our veterans!! If you or someone you know is suffering from PTSD, we have people that have shared a similar experience and are ready to help.

Commander's Corner

Commander Robert Suzansky

At the regular post-meeting held on December 21, 2024, Cmdr. Bob Suzansky expressed his gratitude for all those who have assisted through hard labor and/or monetarily in purchasing and revamping our new post facility at 7057 Henry Harris Rd, about two miles south of the Indian Land Fire Dept. Pete Sturtevant and George Baker, in particular, saved the post a lot of money through the time they spent getting the building operational. The Cmdr. was especially pleased to see the progress made in such a short time.
 
Thanks to all who contributed time and/or money to this ongoing project.
