Show Panguitch VFW Post Planned A new post of the Veterans of Foreign Wars of the United States is being organized in the Panguitch area. A minimum of 25 new or reinstated members is required to obtain the new Charter for Panguitch from VFW National headquarters in Kansas City. All veterans who live in the Panguitch area, and served overseas are asked to phone 676-2335 or 676-2740 for information on becoming a charter member in the Panguitch VFW. VFW membership is made up of men and women who have served their country honorably in overseas engagements for which a campaign badge or medal has been authorized by the U.S. Government. The membership has a common bond of experience forged in sacrifice and danger from when they served the country. The VFW, through its legislative activities, seeks to protect the rights and entitlements of all veterans. Service to disabled and needy veterans and their dependents on a nation-wide scale by its Veterans Service office is always close by. Community betterment is a keystone in the total VFW structure through working for the good of all citizens in the community. Additionally, patriotic sentiments are given expression through action programs aimed at stimulating love of country and more meaningful appreciation of our national heritage. |
