Service Officer Training...

Hello My Fellow Comrades,

Please pass the word to your incoming Service Officers.

I would like to invite all incoming Post Service Officers to a weekly Service Officer training beginning this June.

Every Monday in the month of June, VFW Post 9186 will conduct a half hour Post Service Officer training from 0915-0945 for those interested in learning how to send claims to our Department Service Officer (DSO). No registration needed.

As the incoming District Service Officer, I look forward to meeting other Post Service Officers and more importantly, I look forward to helping many more Veterans this coming year.

I am not an accredited Service Officer but we don't have to be accredited to help Veterans.

Thank You for your time, and I hope to see you at VFW Post 9186 every Monday in June. Who knows, if this is a success; we may even do this all summer:)🙂

Veterans First,

Ralph Alvarado

VFW 9186 Sr Vice/Service Officer
