Where U go?
No Auxiliary that I know of.
Meetings can be fun, or otherwise. It's up to the people attending. All members are welcome to attend and I encourage you to do so. Afterwards you can have lunch with the guys you like to eat with.
Seems that members have been having lunch at locales other than the Charoen Hotel. Some go to California Cafe, and others have been going to Nong's Ribs after the meetings, and perhaps other places as well.
Lunch can also bring indigestion or just plain inebriation.
Enjoy

even a general discharge w/honorable service, like me.as you have a honorable Discharge
there is not, but a private american citizen is having one, by invitation only. his party, his house, his rules, have to be american. since you damn brits and aussies always invite everyone, think i'll stick with you guys at the night market. our countrymen can fight and die together, we can party together. just my opinion, and not intended to start a debate. obviously a private party, so be it, and his right. should be fun, heard last years' was.VFW party
see the rest of you freedom fighters tomorrow.
LA true even if you have General Discharge sorry I failed to mention it
I also was invited to the pvt party but I am going to pass I am not comfortable
going to people homes I do not know or know a short time beside I don't drink
and I enjoy going to the N/M and sitting with all of you regardless of what
country you come from if you can tolerate me that great

Are you eligible if you're a non-American but satisfy the criteria above, excepting Korea (Brits and ANZACS are always knocking about somewhere when the Yanks are kicking somebody's posterior)?Mr Natural wrote:Eligibility - If you have received a campaign medal for overseas service; have served 30 consecutive or 60 non-consecutive days in Korea; or have ever received hostile fire or imminent danger pay, then you are eligible.
