Commander Howard “Rob” Robertson
Welcome to VFW Post 8947, where our mission is simple: to honor the service and sacrifice of America’s veterans by continuing to serve.
My name is Howard "Rob" Robertson, and I’m proud to serve as the Commander of this Post. As a group of veterans, family members, and supporters, we work together to make a meaningful impact here in Louisa County. Whether you’re a fellow veteran, the loved one of someone who served, or a neighbor looking to give back — there’s a place for you at Post 8947.
Our Mission at Post 8947
We are committed to:
Our Goals for the Year Ahead
As Commander, my focus is on:
The VFW Auxiliary
We’re also proud to have an active VFW Auxiliary at Post 8947. If you are a spouse, parent, child, grandparent, or sibling of an eligible veteran, you may be eligible to join. The Auxiliary works hand-in-hand with the Post to support our shared mission.
Get Involved
If you’re a veteran who served in a combat zone, we invite you to join our ranks. If you’re already a member — thank you. And if you’re a community member who wants to help, we welcome your support.
Together, we can ensure that no veteran is forgotten and that the legacy of service continues right here at home.
If you have any questions or want to get involved, feel free to reach out to me directly.
