JEWISH WAR VETERANS

Honoring Jewish war veterans Harve Sturm Commander JWV Post #202

F

irst and foremost, we continue to mourn the loss of Dr. Martin Cohn, Vice Commander, Quartermaster and communications director of our post. We are planning an event in celebration of Cohn’s life and dedication to the Jewish War Veterans as well as his participation in the VFW Honor Guard. Someone so special can never be forgotten; we continue to join with everyone with our thoughts and comfort over the void left behind by our beloved veteran and friend. Our post continued to be active during the months of November and December: • Channukah lighting ceremony at Mercado, sponsored by Jewish Federation of Greater Naples • Channukah lighting ceremony at Cambier Park, sponsored by Chabad of Naples • Dec. 4, Spirit of 45, the greatest generation tribute to Pearl Harbor at VFW

Veterans Shabbat at Temple Shalom: Gene Helfand, Samuel Seltzer, Marty Rubin, Samuel Oshry, Armand Pepper, Earl Taube, Richard Plager and Harve Sturm Post 772. All WWll veterans received special honors for their military service in WWll. • Wreath Day event at Lake Trafford Memorial Gardens Cemetery in Immokalee • Honor Guard also celebrated Wreath Day at Freedom Memorial Park.

Veteran event On Jan. 29, Jewish war veterans and all veterans and spouses are invited to attend a steak dinner (no charge for veterans and spouses) at VFW Post 7721, sponsored by the Harvey Cohen Law Firm. Reservations are required as limited seating is available. If you are interested

in attending, please contact Harve Sturm, Commander JWV, at jwvpost202@gmail. com or 239-272-5999. Since its origin in 1896, JWV has fought against the forces of bigotry and antisemitism. The welfare of our country is of great importance to our organization. We dedicate ourselves to the protection of the constitution of the United States as its guarantee of liberty, so that all men and women, regardless of race or creed, may live together in peace and harmony. We must be ever mindful that Judiasm and democracy are bound by common principles. A knowledge of our own history as Americans and Jews will bring us a true understanding of the role we play.

Dignity in the daily walks of life, patriotic devotion to our country and loyalty to our traditions are our ideals. May you and all who dwell here be sheltered with peace, comfort and love. May those blessings also be showered upon our nation’s veterans who have sacrificed so much for our freedom, safety and honor. We welcome those who have served in the U.S. military, combat not required. Non-veterans and friends who are patriotic and dedicated to our values are invited to join us as guests and patron members. Contact Harve Sturm, Commander, at jwvpost202@gmail.com or 239-261-3270.
