WELCOME TO HOWARD PLANT VFW POST 782

Teamwork ~ Leadership ~ Commitment
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. Our common bond is the battlefield, whether you served in WWII, Korea, Vietnam, the Persian Gulf, Kosovo, the Global War on Terrorism, Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, or peace-keeping expeditionary campaign. Your courage and sacrifice made a difference in preserving and defending world peace. If you are an eligible combat veteran, join us at our Post Meeting on the First Tuesday of the month!


OUR MISSION

To foster camaraderie among United States veterans of overseas conflicts. To serve our veterans, the military and our communities. To advocate on behalf of all veterans.
 
Our Vision: Ensure that veterans are respected for their service, always receive their earned entitlements, and are recognized for the sacrifices they and their loved ones have made on behalf of this great country.
