Henryetta VFW & Auxiliary Post 539

HONORING OUR VETERANS & THEIR FAMILIES SINCE 1921

Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) Post 539

The Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) Post 539, located in Henryetta, Oklahoma, stands as one of the oldest posts in the state, having been founded in 1921. Originally established to assist combat veterans who were seriously injured and to support the widows and children of soldiers killed in action, its mission has since expanded to encompass all veterans and their families.

VFW Post 539 Auxiliary

The Charter for the Auxiliary was signed May 2nd,1921. Between 1921 and 1924, the Post name was officially changed from the Wesley Albert Reynolds Post 539 to Henryetta Post 539, and the Auxiliary proudly adapted alongside it. The names preserved on the historic Charter represent the original dedicated members who helped lay the foundation for our organization.
