Today marks the start of Month of the Military Child.

One way you can support military families, including children, this April? By becoming a supporter of the VFW National Home!

For more than 100 years the VFW National Home has helped the children and families of military veterans, from housing orphans until adulthood during and after World War II, to inviting whole families to live on campus while working to get back in their feet in recent decades.

There are a number of ways you can help, too. Check out their website, linked below, to learn how, and become a donor, a member and/or a Home Front Hero today.

On this day in 2003, the Iraq War officially began. We remember the courage of the men and women who answered the call to serve and honor those who gave their lives in the fight against terrorism. Their sacrifice will never be forgotten.

🚨 Action Alert

The Major Richard Star Act would allow combat-disabled retirees to receive both their full retired pay and their VA disability compensation.

For thousands of families, that would mean stability instead of lifelong financial strain. When service creates the burden, our nation has a responsibility to fix it.

Tell Congress to pass the Major Richard Star Act. Take action here 👉 https://votervoice.net/VFW/Campaigns/132821/Respond

Behind every policy is a veteran, service member, survivor and a family.

We’re gathering your stories to show Congress how policies tied to the Major Richard Star Act impact real veterans and families.

Today, we remember the signing of the Paris Peace Accords, which marked the end of direct U.S. military involvement in the Vietnam War. For the surviving Vietnam Veterans, it began a long journey home, often without the recognition they deserved. Let us honor their courage, resilience, and brotherhood as we reflect on the human cost of war and our duty to ensure every Veteran is remembered.

Today is Holocaust Remembrance Day.

January 27, 2026 is the 81st anniversary of the liberation of the concentration camp Auschwitz-Birkenau. This is the "time to remember the 6 million Jewish victims of the Holocaust and the millions of other victims of N**i persecution," writes the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum. The statement continues, "At the Museum and other commemoration sites, we remember Holocaust victims by reading their names, by lighting candles, and by learning about the Holocaust. All of us can mark International Holocaust Remembrance Day by sharing the truth of the Holocaust and by confronting antisemitism and hate in our daily lives."

More than 16 million Americans fought in World War II; approximately 250,000 lost their lives while serving in Europe. American soldiers liberated hundreds of N**i concentration and internment camps across Europe, including Dachau, Ohrdruf, Mauthausen and Buchenwald.

Today we remember the victims of the Holocaust and join those liberated from Buchenwald in saying, "Never again."
