OUR MISSION

Our mission is very simple.
 
We foster camaraderie among United States veterans of conflicts overseas, we serve our veterans, the military, and the communities, and we advocate on behalf of all veterans.
 
We ensure that veterans are respected for their service, receive their earned entitlements, and are recognized for their sacrifices that they and their loved ones have made on behalf of this great country.

Our core values are to put the interests of our members first, to treat donors as partners in our cause.
 
We promote patriotism, honor military service, and ensure the care of veterans and their families, and serve in our communities.
 
We always promote a positive image of the VFW and respect the diversity of veteran opinions.

Sponsor - UNC / section d'Issy-les-Moulineaux

For over 25 years, Post 605 has had a home in the Maison des Ancien Combattants, in Issy-les-Moulineaux, thanks to the efforts of our Past Post Commander Alex Tesich.

Inside the Maison, there are several French veteran organisations, of note, the Union Nationale des Combattants, our most important friend and supporter.
 
The relationship between the UNC and Post 605 has now passed to the next generation, and together we work closely to help strengthen each other, as well as Franco-American friendship – L’amitié Franco Americaine.
 
In honor of all of the contributions from UNC, Post 605 presented them with a Unit Commendation - the citation reads:

"The Veterans of Foreign Wars, Award of Commendation, is presented to Union Nationale des Combattants / section d'Issy-les-Moulineaux, For Meritorious and Distinguished Service in Furthering the Aims and Ideals of the Veterans of Foreign Wars of the United States. 

In witness whereof we have hereunto set our Hands and the official seal of the Veterans of Foreign Ward of the United States, this 1st day of April 2023, Mark Primmer, Commander, Timothy Povich, Commander-Elect”
