The band is even better than the one below - off Vietnam

on Christmas Day, 1972. This tin can was off the gun line for a day to 

refuel and rearm for a day of cease-fire. The band played hard rock

and modified Christmas music for the crew of the oiler.

We PROMISE the music is better at the LEGION !

USS O'Callahan (DE-1051) - Vietnam - '72-3

The Flag flown at this time is now in the Jay Historical Society Museum

Memorial Bricks

At the Legion Hall in Jay there is a Veteran's Memorial. In the past few years it has been remodeled and prepared  (often with the help of Johnny Baggett) with space for memorial Bricks.
   Here is the link to a PDF 
This is a printable form that you can use to select your brick lettering and place an order. The bricks are $25 each and raise funds for this Legion Post.
purchase a brick with the name of your family member or friend on it.  Often, people will write in a simple description --   "JOHN DOE -ARMY - Vietnam"--- or "JANE SMITH  - NAVY 1963-66". Sometimes people will add a rank or other information. This memorial will be a lasting tribute to the veterans of our region.

Here is a special history of the Edeker-Dubose American Legion Post. The post has a long history of service to veterans and the community.  Robert Edeker died in World War I and Jefferson Dubose died in World War II. They are remembered in the name adopted by Post 121.

The Edeker-Dubose Post leadership wants the community to know the post will not operate as a bar from this point forward. The past reputation as a beer hall is being laid to rest.  The Post WILL be hosting social events and encouraging  community activities at the hall.
