Abraham Lincoln is purported to have said; "Nearly all men can stand adversity but if you want to test a man's character give him power."
 
To rephrase that quotation, and relate it to the members of VFW Post 1555; "Nearly all who are serving or who have served our country have experienced adversity but all maintained their character."
