June 14, 2021, is the Army Birthday. Each year, members gather at Post 1760 to toast the Army with a grog bowl ceremony. This year, Post 1760 is also featuring a cigar dinner immediately preceding the Army toast. Events start at 6:00 PM with the dinner, continuing into the Army birthday ceremony at 7:00. Dode Morris VFW Post 1760 encourages all our Army members, and Auxiliary members with Army sponsorship, to come out for the toast.
