Honoring the memory of deceased veterans

Harve Sturm, Commander JWV Post #202

Martin Cohn, Vice Commander JWV Post #202

The Post has been minimally active during the hot summer months.

We have continued to participate with the Veterans of Foreign Wars as part of its Ceremonial Honor Guard to honor the memory of each deceased veteran’s service to the United States. The Honor Guard recently received recognition and the distinction of First Place in honor guard service across the United States.

Cmdr. Harve Sturm and Vice-Cmdr. Earl Taub. JWV also visit Lake Trafford Memorial Gardens each Veterans Day to honor all veterans who have made the ultimate sacrifice.

Nov. 11 is Veterans Day. There will be recognition ceremonies throughout Collier County. Our Post will be participating as will many of the local veterans groups.
