Auxilary Unit 231 hosts 71st Veterans Dinner

The American Legion Auxiliary Unit 231 has been a part of Rogersville for longer than most people have been alive. The unit was chartered on June 24, 1955, and it wasn’t long after that before it started hosting an annual dinner to recognize Veterans Day. On Saturday night, Unit 231 hosted its 71st annual Veterans Day Dinner for veterans of the US Armed Forces living in Hawkins County and those who support them. The organization, which had just 11 members at the time of its founding, has gone on to make enormous public service contributions in the seven decades that followed. Saturday’s dinner was just one more example of that. The annual dinner is held at the Price Public Community Center & Swift Museum on Spring Street. Unit 231 has been at the forefront of this building’s transition into a community center and is a longtime co-sponsor of it. In the 1950s, they were one of the organizations advocating for making Highway 11W through Hawkins County a four-lane highway. They have worked with Habitat for Humanity, the March of Dimes, and are often seen distributing gifts and holiday food around Christmas, and helping veterans at the VA Hospital in Mountain
