Btw, why do they call it that....Veteran's of Foreign Wars....weren't they all foreign wars? Well, 'cept for that Japanese attack and that was really a part of WWII....which was somewhere else. 
Someone's present should be there when you get home today....no peeking.  |
Oh I should get Sarge on here to tell ya .. cause he get fired up over this.. he can't vote or be on the committee there,cause when he was in, he was never sent overseas... (not his choice) yet the commander of the post was DRAFTED and sent over seas.. who also works here, the one with the list of words...
anyhow they get into it all the time cause Terry will say, " you can't vote or be on the committee" and Jim will say " at least I volunteered to serve my country,I can't help where I was sent... You didn't even want to go, You were drafted."
They fight about it all the time.
It doesn't have to be a war,, as long as your were sent over seas, Jim is a " service connected member" not a full veteran of a foreign war.. which is stupid, cause you can be a veteran and never have been in a war, but you were in another country... it's strange.
I'm a " social" member,, cause I'm so social..
Mail already came...not ups though...
