But I fully support the VFW.

Whether it's testifying before Congress, or assisting veterans with VA claims or installing ramps for disabled vets we do good work.

My solution to trumpeter VFW folks was to move to a majority AA post.

Sad to hear the organization getting shit on here.

Whatever. KMA.
