Boston Police VFW Post 1018

Today, I held a hearing on the impact of the government shutdown on veterans & military families. Thank you Commissioner Santiago @BostonVets, @DAVHQ, @NECHV, Sen @LydiaMEdwards, @VFWDeptofMA . It’s indefensible to cut services & benefits for veterans & military families #bospoli

I want to cordially invite you to the Purple Heart Day Recognition Ceremony tomorrow, August 7, 2025 at 9am at Boston City Hall Plaza. Thank you @BostonVets for bringing us together!

EOVS was honored to join @MassGovernor in Revere today to welcome VFW Commander Lipphardt to Massachusetts during the 125th year of the @VFWHQ. For over a century, the VFW has been a steadfast advocate for veterans, ensuring they receive the benefits, support, and recognition they have earned through their service.

#ICYMI “Everyone who served honorably met [their] end of this agreement. We demand our leaders do the same and ensure VA has the staff and resources so veterans can receive their full earned benefits. This is not an ask. Honor the contract with our veterans. There is nothing more sacred than taking care of those who served this nation, and this has got to be fixed.” – VFW National Commander Al Lipphardt during his testimony before a joint hearing of the Senate and House Veterans’ Affairs Committees #VFWDC2025 #VFWTestimony #HonorTheContract @VFW_OfficeDC @HouseVetAffairs @VetAffairsDems @SVACGOP @SVACDems stripes.com/veterans/2025-…

Lieutenant Philip Tobin retired in 1995 from the Family Assistance Section and was a proud @USArmy Veteran. Lieutenant Tobin’s family was presented with our department flag in his honor. May he rest in eternal peace. #NeverForget @NYPDnews

@VFWHQ @VFW_OfficeDC Congrats, Chief, from your friends at the Police Post!
