American Legion Post 48 Commander Ed Manzi presents post member John Volpe with a certificate honoring his 50 years of continuous membership in the American Legion. Volpe served in the U.S. Army during the Vietnam era. In the past 25 years, only two members of the post have achieved this distinction. Membership in the legion is open to any honorably discharged veteran who served at least one day of active duty. Post 48, Guilford, meets on the first Tuesday of the month at 7:30 p.m. at the Knights of Columbus Hall.
