Description
Our Post Service Officer Morse escorted a non VFW member to a Rotary Club of Taft weekly meeting -something the VFW Post and the Rotary Club is working on making a regular event. The Rotary Club provided lunches for both veterans. The guest veteran retired from the U.S. Navy in 2023 with 20 years of services. It was very telling that he was struggling a bit with the transition back to our small community. Morse and the veteran have spoke several times since the lunch meeting about exploring his VA disabilities different Taft College pathways and general life discussions. He has also expressed an interest in joining our local VFW Post.
