KENOSHA POST 1865 MEMBER RECEIVES WDVA RECOGNITION
Posted at 03:20 PM on Saturday, April 4, 2009 by Wisconsin VFW News
David Goeldner, a volunteer veterans service officer of the Wisconsin Veterans of Foreign Wars, receives the Wisconsin Department of Veterans Affairs (WDVA) Veterans Volunteer of the Year Award for the period of Jan. 1 – Dec. 31, 2008.
The award was presented to Goeldner (at left) by WDVA Acting Secretary Ken Black (at right) during a Veterans’ Stakeholder Conference at the department on March 31.
Each year WDVA presents Annual Veterans Awards to recognize advocacy for and service to veterans. Among his many volunteer activities, Goeldner helps train the Kenosha Police and Fire Department in recognizing Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder in veterans.
Goeldner is a Vietnam Veteran and continues to serve as both the First District Service Officer and Post 1865 (Kenosha) Service Officer. He has drawn praise far and wide for his creative and dedicated outreach programs on Veterans Benefits, as well as his willingness to "show the way" for Veterans in need.
In addition to his Veterans Service work, Dave Goeldner has served the Department of Wisconsin as Community Service Chairman for several years. Congratulations to a great VFW Member!
