Today, Greenwood VFW Post 5864 proudly joins our nation in celebrating the 251st Birthday of the United States Army.
Established on June 14, 1775, more than a year before the signing of the Declaration of Independence, the United States Army has faithfully defended our nation for over two and a half centuries. From the Revolutionary War to today's missions around the world, Army Soldiers have answered the call to duty with courage, honor, and selfless service.
We pay tribute to all Army veterans, active-duty Soldiers, Reservists, National Guard members, and Army families whose sacrifices have helped preserve the freedoms we enjoy today. Your dedication and commitment to our nation are deeply appreciated and will never be forgotten.
As we celebrate this historic milestone, we remember the generations of Soldiers who have proudly worn the Army uniform and upheld the Army Values of Loyalty, Duty, Respect, Selfless Service, Honor, Integrity, and Personal Courage.
Happy 251st Birthday to the United States Army!
"This We'll Defend."
From all of us at Greenwood VFW Post 5864, thank you to every Soldier, past and present, for your service to our great nation.
๐บ๐ธ Happy Birthday, U.S. Army!
