The Post also did held a ceremony at the grave of our Posts name sake Robert L Clore. Our Post later fired a salute a the Vietnam War Memorial in Kansas City.

We continue to have a growing crowd at our monthly Pot Luck Dinners. Last months was the largest to date. This might have been because of the entertainment provided by a group of Vets with guitars.
