VFW Post 3944 will host a book signing with William “Doc” Anderson on Friday, August 5, 2016.  They are not sure of the start time, but he will be there until 1:00 pm.  Doc wrote the book, Battlefield Doc, the memoirs of a Korean War Combat Medic.  Come join him at Post 3944 and hear about his story.  This is also when they have their fish fry, so bring your family and enjoy the company and great food.
