Who We Are:
The
Veterans of Foreign Wars of the United States is a nonprofit veterans service
organization comprised of eligible veterans and military service members from
the active, guard and reserve forces.
Our Mission:
To
foster camaraderie among United States veterans of overseas conflicts. To serve
our veterans, the military and our communities. To advocate on behalf of all
veterans.
Our Vision:
Ensure that veterans are respected for their service, always receive their
earned entitlements, and are recognized for the sacrifices they and their loved
ones have made on behalf of this great country.
In
the spirit of honoring our veterans, VFW Post 1291 is creating a Walk of Honor
so all people of Middle Tennessee can celebrate and memorialize their friends
and loved ones who served, or are currently serving, honorably in any branch of
the armed forces.
We
are creating a beautiful brick walkway, that all are encouraged to visit, to
eternally honor and celebrate our brave Heroes. Bricks will be 4x8 and will end
at our Post flagpole which will have contemplation benches.
Upon ordering, please be sure to use all capital letters and provide the
following:
*Name
*Rank
*Branch of service
*Dates served
*Name of Unit or Vessel
*Campaign if applicable
We
thank you for your continued support of our veterans. VFW Post 1291 proudly
supports, with honor, the medical and mental needs of ALL veterans since 1925.
