HONOR GUARD

 Community service is an important priority in our country and a founding VFW tenet. The VFW has a rich tradition associated with community service. Working closely with other national, State and Local organizations, the VFW annually reports over 14 million volunteer hours. 

 Flag Services

The Post can assist in procurement of U.S. Flags for display at the home or business for a donation, and will accept torn and faded Flags for proper disposal. 

The Post Honor Guard provides Flag presentation services to organizations on request for public activities.

Memorial Services

The Post Honor Guard is available to assist families to conduct Memorial Services for deceased veterans.  Services available include:

  • Rifle team to provide gun salute.
  • Bugler to play Taps.
  • Presentation of Flag to next of kin.  (Normally the Flag is provided by the Mortuary.  The Post can obtain the Flag if the discharge document for the veteran is available.)

To request services of the Post Honor Guard, telephone the office at (360) 254-0155 or  mailto:adj@vfw7824.org   Please provide fourteen days of advance notice.
