VFW hosting Global War on Terror program
The public is invited to attend the first in a new series of programs featuring local veterans who will share their experiences from the Global War on Terror.
The inaugural event, “Cousins and Combat: A Dubois County Legacy,” will take place on Thursday, November 6, 2025, at VFW Post 673, 3131 Newton Street, Suite 3, Jasper, IN 47546.
This opening program highlights the remarkable story of four cousins — Kade Brescher, Jace Brescher, Danny Brescher, and Nick Fischer — who each joined the Army National Guard and deployed multiple times to Iraq and/or Afghanistan in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom (OIF) and/or Operation Enduring Freedom (OEF).
The evening begins with a meal at 5:30 p.m., followed by the presentation at 6:30 p.m. Guests are asked to RSVP by October 27, 2025 at https://cousinsandcombataduboisco.rsvpify.com or by contacting Gary Love at (812) 639-3789.
This informal series is designed to:
- Capture and share the stories of local veterans with family, friends, and the community.
- Encourage more Global War on Terror (GWOT) veterans to connect with and join the VFW.
All members of the community are encouraged to attend this unique opportunity to hear firsthand accounts from Dubois County veterans and to honor their service. A reasonably priced meal ($13.75) will be served, and attendees will have the chance to ask questions and engage with the speakers. This event is open to the public.
