The Ephraim Slaughter American Legion Post in Harrisburg is a refuge for veterans navigating their return home after war, Commander Stephen Holmes said.
The skill game machines that entertain patrons also provide income that not only helps the post keep its doors open, but give back to men and women who are struggling after serving their country, he said.
“You can walk in and break bread with somebody that stepped on the ground that you were on, or smelled the smells that you smelled that bring back the memories of all hell,” Holmes said. “These are the guys that we are fighting for.”
