Largest Post in Nebraska, Benson Post 2503!

Located in Omaha, Nebraska, this post was mustered in 29 April 1932 and has just under 1000 members.  They are actively working toward regaining and surpassing the 1000 mark, and added two new members tonight.  The outside is immaculate and you are greeted by Gold and Blue Star flags and a statue of a soldier.  Once inside, there is no mistaking this is a VFW Post.  The memorabilia on the walls throughout tell a military story and you can feel that this Post is more than a building:  It's a Pocket of Patriotism!

The meeting room looks great and it was a pleasure to see all of the stations set up and traditions followed as they worked through the business meeting.  The reports were informative and to the point and there was no meandering about frivolous matters.  These Post members know how to hold a meeting!

I was particularly impressed with Al as he talked about the Veterans Court Program he works.  They do it right here and their Veterans Court graduates are rewarded for their hard work and dedication to the program.  I was happy to provide my Junior Vice CIC Coin to Al for his hard work and also to Commander Mike for all he does at the helm of this Post.

These comrades care about their community and it shows.  I had a great time afterward talking with them the meeting. Thank you for letting me be a part of your evening!
