The Fleet Reserve meets every second Thursday at the National Armed Forces & Law Enforcement Memorial Museum in Dunedin and every third Monday of the month our veterans get together with wives and friends for a social luncheon.

Our president Dave Soderland presented our guest with FRA spinning trophies with an appreciation message inscribed at the base. It means quite a bit to us veterans to get the support we do from the city of Dunedin.

Our position is to help many of our returning veterans and quite a few of the veterans from the Korean, Vietnam and Iraqi War who need help with many of the benefits that veterans are entitled to.

Joe DiSalvo, FRA
