BLUE STAR BANNERS web S.S.

A MEMBER OF A LOCAL AMERICAN LEGION POST IS ASKING FOR DONATIONS, SO THEY CAN GET SOME MORE BLUE STAR SERVICE BANNERS MADE. MARV SHAW SAID THE BANNERS ARE GIVEN TO PEOPLE, WHEN SOMEONE IN THE HOME IS SERVING IN THE UNITED STATES ARMED FORCES. THE BANNERS ARE TRADITIONALLY DISPLAYED IN THE WINDOWS OF THOSE HOMES. DONATIONS CAN BE MAILED TO P.O. BOX 418, AT THE SANTA CRUZ MAIN POST OFFICE ON FRONT STREET. THE ZIPCODE THERE IS 95061. MARV WILL ALSO BE ACCEPTING DONATIONS IN PERSON ON THURSDAY (VETERAN?S DAY), AT THE SANTA CRUZ VETERAN?S HALL ON FRONT STREET. HE REQUESTS THAT DONATIONS BEING MADE BY CHECK, BE WRITTEN TO AMERICAN LEGION POST 64, AND THEN IN THE LOWER LEFT CORNER PEOPLE SHOULD WRITE ?BLUE STAR BANNERS?.

the Blue Star Service Banner tradition reminds us all that war touches every neighborhood in our land.
