News You Can Use & Upcoming Event Details

Finally everything for NEC is being posted to the website.  I have checked the AMVETS website and as of now, nothing has been posted about shuttles from Pittsburgh International Airport to AMVETS National Headquarters in Washington, PA (WashPA as they call it).  Once all the information about shuttles is posted by AMVETS, it will be posted to our Facebook page.
