WE REMEMBER

We remember our fallen military service members from WWII to current conflicts. A special memorial is on display for Southfield veterans who died in Vietnam. Also in our VFW Hall is a POW/MIA Remembrance Table, honoring our missing and captive service members from all conflicts.

Buddy Poppies

Poppy Days are usually during the first full week of May. However, our Post make poppies available all year long at the beverage bar. Your donations are greatly appreciated.

Veteran Outreach

Coming home doesn't mean the battle is over. With over 10 times the amount of veterans lost to suicide than to combat operations in the same time period, there has never been a more important time to TAKE A STAND and DO something to support our veterans!! If you or someone you know is suffering from PTSD, we have people that have shared a similar experience and are ready to help.
