VFW Post 4002

VFW Post 4002 on Ambassador Road has been serving Longview veterans since it was founded on December 6, 1944, in the closing months of World War II — eight decades of continuous presence in this community. It's one of the larger veterans organizations in the area and functions as a nonprofit veterans service post. The post meets at 7 p.m. on the second Thursday of each month, and it isn't a closed door: Post 4002 opens up to the wider community with weekly events and food specials, which has helped keep the hall active and the membership connected. For veterans new to Longview looking for other people who've been where they've been, or for families trying to find local veteran support, this is a straightforward first phone call.
