HONOR GUARD
Community service is an important priority in our country and a founding VFW tenet. The VFW has a rich tradition associated with community service. Working closely with other national, state, and local organizations, the VFW annually reports over 14 million volunteer hours.
The Post Honor Guard provides flag presentation services to organizations upon request for public activities.
Memorial Services
The Post Honor Guard is available to assist families in conducting memorial services for deceased veterans. Services available include:
Rifle team to provide gun salute.
