I hope it's okay to put this in this topic, as a new member and veteran who's also active in the local AMVETS I just thought it might be a good place to get the word out. If not I apologize in advance.
Calling all veterans to become a part of our local AMVETS Post 62. This post was recently established by a Navy veteran at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital who has since retired and moved out of area. There are members manning the posts and are eagerly seeking new local veterans to join this excellent organization to build a vibrant Memphis area post that can support local veterans and the community.
AMVETS, is the largest and oldest veterans service organization that is open to and fights for all veterans. Membership in AMVETS is open to anyone who is currently serving, or who has honorably served, in the U.S. Armed Forces from World War II to the present, to include the National Guard and Reserves.
Veterans families are also eligible and encouraged to play vital roles in the local post with AMVETS Ladies Auxillary & Sons of AMVETS. Participation is voluntary and can be simply attending a monthly meeting or giving any time available to any of the activities throughout the year, it's up to you.
We need more members to help maintain and build our local Post 62, please contact: Lee A Buchschacher Commander, AMVETS Post 62 (901) 230-3870 leeb1369@gmail.com
