U.S. ARMY

The U.S. Army is made up of the most dedicated, most respected soldiers in the world. These soldiers protect America's Freedoms while serving at home and abroad, and they are always prepared to defend the nation in times of need.

U.S. MARINES

We are soldiers of the sea, providing forces and detachments to naval ships and shore operations. We are global leaders, developing expeditionary doctrine and innovations that set the example, and leading other countries' forces and agencies in the multinational military operations. These unique capabilities make us "First to Fight", and our nations first line of defense.

U.S. NAVY

America's Navy is a force as relevant today as it's been historically significan for the last 238 years. The times may change, the threats may become more obscure, the complex nature of 21st century life may make the demand for such presence less obvious. However, now more than ever, the Navy is something to be aware of Something to be thankful for. Something to be proud of.

Commander's Corner

Welcome to Our Post

We invite you to join us in fellowship—whether at one of our community events or as a guest in our Canteen. We also welcome you to consider becoming a VFW or Auxiliary member.

Georgetown, South Carolina’s third-oldest city, has a proud and enduring legacy of military service. While our local Veteran population has steadily declined since 2010, the needs of our Veterans and our community remain as great as ever.

Our mission is to foster camaraderie among U.S. Veterans of overseas conflicts, local Veterans, current Service Members, and the broader Georgetown community. We proudly advocate for Veterans and work to empower those we serve.

We’re always looking for ways to connect and engage. One of our new initiatives is Trivia Night, held every other Thursday—an opportunity for fun, fellowship, and friendly competition open to all.

If you or someone you know is a Veteran in need, please reach out—we’re here to help. If you’re a Veteran or a relative of one, we encourage you to join us. There are many ways to qualify for VFW or Auxiliary membership, so stop by and speak with us—we’d be honored to welcome you.
