A Letter From Your Commander

Comrades,

IAW National VFW By-Laws and guidance the last two months (re: Covid-19 pandemic and Post operations and elections) from the National VFW and Dept of Texas VFW, elections for Post officers were conducted Monday, May 25.  The following officers were elected for the 2020-2021 VFW Year:

Commander: Dave Walden

Sr. Vice Commander: John Jowers

Jr. Vice Commander: Robert Beach

Quartermaster: Gene Davenport

3rd Yr Trustee: Jim Holliday

Eight members of the Post were elected to the House Committee.  I don’t have those names in front of me--you know who you are. :)

It has been one of the highest honors of my life to serve as your Post Commander for the past year.  I fully support Comrade Walden and the incoming leadership team and wish them the best success leading our Post.  Our Post is in great shape financially and our standing in the community is the highest its ever been because of your committment to execute the primary mission of the Veterans of Foreign Wars and all its Posts':  help Veterans and their Families, honor our deceased Comrades in Arms,  and serve our community.  As a soon to be Past Post Commander I will continue to assist Comrade Walden and the incoming leadership team any way I can to ensure our Post succeeds.  I also have the honor of serving on the Department of Texas VFW State Legislative Committee next year and will be advocating for the interests of Veterans and military families during the 2021 Texas Legislative Session. We have much to fight for in at the state capitol in Austin and in Washington, DC.

Also, a reminder that our Post Canteen has been open since Friday, May 22 with some limitations in place such as social distancing.  Finally, as we've always done for several years, members of our Post participated in the 28th Annual Texas VFW District 28 Memorial Day ceremony on Monday at Cooke-Walden Cemetery in Pflugerville--Dave Walden, Terry Craig, Dave Stading, and myself.  We also conducted a Memorial Day Ceremony at the Post on Monday. Stand by for a June 2020 Post calendar as we are now able to conduct some events at the Post.

I wish each of you and your families the best regards.  Stay safe.

Yours in Comradeship,

Mitch Fuller

Commander
