Benton City American Legion Hosts Breakfast for Public

Breakfast at The Amercian Legion open to the public

Last week we learned of the death of Staff Sgt. Matthew "Tatonka" McClintock of the Washington National Guard in Afghanistan. The green beret died in action only months after celebrating his second anniversary and the birth of his son Declan. Here's what you can do to help:

60 members of the Oregon Army National Guard (st Battalion, 168th Aviation Regiment) go to Kuwait from the Pendleton Airport to fight ISIS.

President Obama is sending more than 400 military experts to set up a new base in Iraq and help that nation's army fight ISIS.

I saw the video of the man pretending to be an Army Ranger on Black Friday and it made me so sad! Then I found out there are SO MANY videos like that there are entire Youtube channels dedicated to them!

Besides the usual menu of barbeques, lawn work, projects and more,  take some time this Monday and honor our veterans, past and present.
