In This Issue:
1. VA Appropriations Update
2. House VA Committee Hearings
3. Merchant Mariner Bill Passes House
4. GI Bill Registration Update
 
1. VA Appropriations Update: In testimony before the House Appropriations Subcommittee on Military Construction and Veterans Affairs, VA Secretary Eric Shinseki reaffirmed the Administration's support for advanced appropriations, a VFW top priority goal.  Advanced appropriations would ensure funding for veterans healthcare is sufficient, timely and predictable for all who use the system by funding the system one year in advance.  H.R. 1016 and S. 423, sponsored by House VA Chairman Bob Filner (D-CA) and Senate VA Chairman Daniel Akaka (D-HI), respectively, still needs your support.  VFW asks you to contact your legislators and urge them to co-sponsor these critical bills.  To send a message to your legislators, visit the VFW website at: http://capwiz.com/vfw/issues/alert/?alertid=13251881.

Flag presentation to daughter's who lost their dad

Monday, March 23, 2009 at 09:47 AM

by Lynn W. Rolf III

This past Saturday I had the honor to present two flag cases and memorial commendation to two young girls who lost their father tragically. Myself and Bill Plotner convoyed to the Sedalia , MO VFW. Samantha (14) and Jessica (10) lost their father 4 years ago in a traffic accident while he was home visiting mom and them before he shipped to Iraq. Thanks to our great connection with the Ft Leavenworth ACS they asked us to help the family out. Mother of these daughters dropped them off at Grandmas and took off with dad's money. Grandma is working a couple jobs taking care of them now. They are now of the age to understand what happened and have asked about his service and wanted something to remember dad by. Post 56 took donations and with the help from National we bought these beautiful flag cases and presented them to the daughters. Your Post has really made difference in these two girls lives. I asked them to honor their dad by being the best daughters and Americans they could be. Be very Proud of your Post and this great organization of the Veterans of Foreign Wars!!
