Closed for VACATION

The “kids” are both old now, and so they’ll party at the house while we’re in Europe, but they won’t fill any orders. Can’t blame them, I fired them long ago. Anyway, we’re going to EUROPE on a WWII Western Front Tour, so, well, don’t order until we get back. From July 24th to August 8 we’ll be on the plane, bus, train, ship and our feet looking at some of the coolest places on Earth. I hope you can understand. Follow us on FaceBook (Bryan Dibble- there will be a link to the Tour Facebook Page, I thinks it’s called EF Tour 2024 or WWII Trip, I can’t remember…) or on Instagram.

Running for Veterans

My son, and one of Service of Supply’s employees, ran a 🎃 fun run today wearing full Vietnam era combat gear. The 5k is raising money for great community organizations, but Ian is asking for sponsors to help raise money for the VFW Foundation. Help him through his GoFund Me.

Students Involved in Military Tributes, Parades and Events – Over the Years…

Service of Supply is not just a business.  It’s a personal collection, a way to honor our nation’s military veterans, and a vehicle for getting students involved in our patriotic history.  Bryan Dibble collects uniforms of all eras and puts them to use for Veterans Day, demonstrations, living history displays, and much more.  Students from our city eagerly volunteer to represent the military men and women of the past.  Our group is called SERVE – Students Engaged in Re-creating Veteran’s Experiences.  SERVE teaches students about the period of time they are representing.  We meet veterans at the VFW and learn more about what they experienced in the service.  Students who are wearing uniforms also are called upon to teach others, especially younger kids, what that uniform represents and who the people were called up to serve at that time in American history.  Since the late 1990s, hundreds of students have worn the uniforms and “walked a step in their shoes.”

KATS FM Radio giving us a cool tribute for Veterans Day

KATS FM posted a cool little video last year for Veterans Day.  We do this every year, and it’s fun to see the students wearing the uniforms and interacting with the vets at the FVW in Yakima, WA.  Thanks to KATS for being there and sharing what these great kids do for our vets!
