JEWISH WAR VETERANS
JWV Post 202 update By Harve Sturm Commander

T
he Jewish War Veterans of the United States (JWV) is the voice of Jewish veterans and friends to all veterans. The organization was founded in 1896, after the American Civil War. The Union fought antisemitism, in the armed forces and with the general public. Jews proudly served and fought in the armed forces. With over 124 years of service, the JWV is the oldest continuously operating veteran’s organization in the United States. Our mission is to foster and perpetuate patriotism and respect for the American flag, encourage the doctrine of universal liberty and equal rights, preserve our values for future generations, advocate for civics education in our schools, and protect and defend the rights of those who protect and defend us. In April and May of this year, because of the pandemic, our JROTC awards program was modified. The Commanders
at the seven schools were given certificates and medals to distribute to the winners. We also participated in other ceremonies: i.e., memorial services for those who served. We are proud, as Jewish veterans, to have served our country; we are proud that we continue to bring honor and recognition to our people. We stand for Jewish pride, identity and the American military to our nation.
Non-veterans who are patriotic and dedicated to Jewish values are invited to join as Patron members.

Our assisted living is accredited for two reasons. You. And your family. Because having the confidence and peace of mind of accreditation is important. That’s why The Carlisle is accredited by CARF International—an independent organization that sets exceedingly high standards for care and service. It’s a lot like an accreditation for a hospital or college. Or a five-star rating for a hotel. We think you’ll find that our accreditation is only one of the many reasons to take a good look at The Carlisle Naples senior living community.
