VFW Action Corps - Let's not Forget Armed Forces Day - 5-21-22
 

Armed Forces Day 2022:

On May 21, 2022, millions of Americans will pay tribute to the men and women
of the U.S. Armed Forces for their service in support of our nation. First observed
on May 20, 1950, Armed Forces Day was intended to not only give thanks for
those who keep our nation safe, but also to educate the public about the various
roles of our six branches of the military and the roles that those branches play
in our community. In keeping with that theme, many DOD installations such as
Joint Base Lewis-McChord and Dover Air Force Base will hold events that are
open to the public to highlight our nation’s military capabilities, as well as the
men and women who proudly wear the uniform. Additionally, many VFW
posts will participate in local parades and host events to garner community
awareness and support for our men and women in uniform.
