Post 7916 - April 2021 #Still Serving Post of the Month
The members of VFW Post 7916 in Occoquan, Virginia, have demonstrated a commitment to their mission of “Honoring the Dead by Helping the Living” throughout the pandemic.
The Post made sure members received health and welfare checks so that those most at-risk, or in need, received essentials. They also delivered food to residents of the town and donated to a local food bank.
As we enter Suicide Prevention and Awareness Week (continuing throughout the month of September), I want to take a moment to speak directly to each of you, not just as your Commander, but as a fellow veteran who understands the weight many of us carry.
