The wall will contain the names of the 2,654 Michigan soldiers who gave their lives in the Vietnam War including 130 soldiers from our district, District 9, and 17 soldiers from Gratiot County. The names of the 17 Gratiot County soldiers are also listed on the news board located inside our Post. Please take a moment to read their names and remember their sacrifice the next time you visit the Post.
Engraved bricks in tribute of Vietnam Veterans are also available for $50 each. These bricks will be placed in front of the Vietnam Freedom Wall Monument and can include the name of any Vietnam Veteran. For more information on the Buy A Brick Program click here. More information can be found online at the following links.
Raffle tickets are available at the Post. You may also make donations by check payable to Veteran's Freedom Wall. A Go Fund Me Account has also been set up to help raise funds. We will share dedication information as soon as it becomes available. Thank you for supporting your local Veterans!

As a personal friend of Denny Gee (my name is on the jeep) and a past resident of Alma (Class of 61), I will be sending a check for 10 tickets to help support your efforts. I will also submit my name to be put on a brick. If you want to know more about me, I am sure Denny can fill you in.
