  1. Hello again. I am so sorry that my original comment implied that people over 70 cannot do as much. What I meant is that our local American Legion/VFW needs more retired veterans of all ages to get involved, take on leadership roles, and plan projects. Please forgive any negativity that may have resulted from previous comments. Sue Straub
