Cold Spring VFW Post 2362 Celebrates 75th Anniversary
Gary Kurpius, national commander of the Veterans of Foreign Wars, has announced the presentation of a Diamond Jubilee Award citation to VFW Post 2362 in Cold Spring. The Post celebrated its 75th anniversary on February 2.
"This is a very significant milestone for a VFW Post," Kurpius said in announcing the award. "This Diamond Jubilee Award recognizes dedication, determination, hard work and a lot of patriotism. And it recognizes 75 years of serving the needs of local veterans and their families; and 75 years of service to the local community, and 75 years of contributing to the strength, power and influence of our national organization. In presenting this award, I send my sincere thanks and appreciation to the members of VFW Post 2362."
There are 2.4 million members of the VFW and its Auxiliaries located in approximately 8,500 Posts worldwide. The VFW, founded in 1899, assists all veterans and their families in obtaining veterans entitlements and other services. In addition, the organization works for the well being of those serving on active duty, in the National Guard and the Reserve.
