Welcome to VFW Post 295!

Gallagher Hansen VFW Post 295 -South St. Paul MN. was chartered in 1919 (100 years ago) by a group Veterans who after serving in WWI, returned to our community. They were proud of their Military Service and were seeking the comradeship of those who like themselves knew first-hand what we mean when we say; “Some gave all, but all gave some”. So, Inspired, by the knowledge that; “Freedom is not Free”, they dedicated themselves to serving their fellow veterans, their Families, their widows and their orphans and their community. It is this Legacy that allows us to say: “We take Pride in 295 because here we truly, Honor the dead by serving the Living”. – Mike Labovitch, Commander

Steve Buyer

Because all of us believe and understand in the fabric of the common bond of why we call ourselves American is to care for the men and women who wear the uniform; and when they take off the uniform, we care for them when they are veterans.

Pete Hegseth

Memorial Day isn’t just about honoring veterans, its honoring those who lost their lives. Veterans had the fortune of coming home. For us, that’s a reminder of when we come home we still have a responsibility to serve. It’s a continuation of service that honors our country and those who fell defending it.

Jeff Miller

The willingness of America’s veterans to sacrifice for our country has earned them our lasting gratitude.

Zach Wamp

Thank you for the sacrifices you and your families are making. Our Vietnam Veterans have taught us that no matter what are positions may be on policy, as Americans and patriots, we must support all of our soldiers with our thoughts and our prayers.
