VFW Post 2485 Membership

Welcome to the 13th largest overseas VFW Post in our great organization.  The 2009-2010 recruiting year ended on 30 June 2010 with 1556 members.  This was our 22nd consecutive year of membership growth. The 2010-2011 year began on 1 July 2010 with a year end objective of 1600 members.  If every Post member could recruit one member this year, we would be far and away the largest Post in the VFW.  Think Membership.
 
Special kudos to Larry Heilhecker, Bob Chesko, Ed Jernigan Bob Zaher, Rick Nelson, Bill Grubbs Dennis Carlton and the numerous other members who continue to make the program successful.
