JOIN THE VETERANS OF FOREIGN WARS AND BECOME A MEMBER OF POST 688
As yesterday's defenders of freedom, we want to welcome today's
military service members into our ranks to become part of our elite
group. Our common bond is the battlefield, whether it is service in the
Persian Gulf, Korea, Kosovo, the Global War on Terrorism or
peace-keeping expeditionary campaigns. Your courage and sacrifice have
made a difference in preserving and defending world peace.
If you have received a campaign medal for overseas service; have served
30 consecutive or 60 non-consecutive days in Korea; or have ever
received hostile fire or imminent danger pay, then you're eligible to
join our ranks.
