The Kansas Chapter of the Veterans of the Battle of the Bulge’s annual reunion is held toward the end of January to commemorate the end of the battle. This year we are partnering with the Dwight D. Eisenhower Museum in Abilene, Kansas. We want to plan a two-day event on Saturday, January 24, 2015 and Sunday, January 25, 2015. We also want to dedicate a granite bench at the Eisenhower Museum on behalf of the Veterans of the battle.

Because of the age of our Veterans (92 is the average of our group), we are in need of transportation, lodging, food, and other items that obviously we don’t have the funding for to reach as many of the Veterans (current and new) that we possibly can. The logistics of getting Veterans from all over the state of Kansas is not an easy one and we don’t want any of them to miss this event honoring them.
