On May 1st the Durand VFW will be holding our first Military History Expo/Show at the Durand Reed/Raymond VFW Post 2272. The Michigan Vietnam Traveling Memorial Wall will be a featured part of our days event. The gentleman whom care for and handle the wall wished me to pass along this important announcement. If there are family and/or friends of persons listed on the wall, they wish them to bring photos of these men to the days event. The pictures will be scanned and placed in a memorial book that travels with the exhibit.
Im also looking for persons intrested in reserving table space to display military items and memorabilia. Also if persons have books, DVDs, or military related items that they wish to sell are encouraged to please contact me.
Im also looking for reenactors or living historians who cover any of the periods of US Military history whom would like to assist. With weather permitting I would like to have out door exhibits as well. This would include some encampments from the Revolution to the Gulf war.
I want this to be a fun family friendly event and at the end of the day meet some great people and go away with a renewed appreciation for what your fellow countrymen/women have gone through.
If anyone would like please feel free to email me at deckfam92@aol.com. Please include in the subject line Durand Military History Show.
much respect
Jeff Decker
Sr Vice Commander
Durand Reed/Raymond VFW 2272

We can all help keep this "bumped" up until after
