Pat Patterson, a World War Two Pilot who was held in a German Prison Camp after being shot down, has been a continuing inspiration at VFW Calabash Post 7288.

Many of his friends showed up to wish him well during the new chapter in his life but sadness crept in as the realization surfaced that he’d no longer be there for lunch in the days to come.
