75th Anniversary display at V-F-W hall in Algona.

The Veterans of Foreign Wars held a 75th Anniversary display on Veterans Day at the V-F-W Hall in Algona. The VFW`s Howard Ohmdahl says a real attention getter was a display of artifacts brought back from Iraq including clothing, helmets, license plates and pop cans. The auxiliary also had a display and Troop 71 of the Boy Scouts, sponsored by the VFW also had a display. Afterwards the VFW and the Auxiliary held a banquet in the downstairs part of the VFW Hall to mark the occasion. The Algona VFW charter dates back to the year 1932.
