The purpose of this corporation shall be
fraternal, patriotic, historical and educational; To preserve and strengthen comradeship among its members; To assist worthy
comrades; To perpetuate the memory and history of our dead and to assist their widows and orphans; To maintain true allegiance
to the Government of the United States of America and fidelity to its Constitution and laws; To foster true patriotism;
To maintain and extend the institutions of American Freedom and to preserve and defend the United States from all her enemies,
whomsoever.
There is a common bond that exists
between those who have shared the military experience and that bond is even greater among those in combat. There is a
shared sense of duty and common belief in a cause higher than oneself. Today's veterans choose to serve and by doing
so, assume all risk associated with preserving freedom at home and abroad. VFW members understand the true essence of
America and the ideals of democracy for all. There is a sign in our Post "Don't mind what it cost to be a member,
remember what it cost to be eligible".
