To the editor:

I had the pleasure of meeting with Quartermaster John Visi at the VFW Post 6933, formerly known as The Chapel, built in 1864 to assist Civil War veterans and their families. Post 6933 is situated next to the Noroton Heights Fire Department and the Little League Field. Why not have a post-game picnic supper here with a cold drink? The bar opens at 5:30 p.m. on Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Mondays, and there are ample tables for post-game dinners or winning celebrations! The Chapel is the last surviving building of what was known as Fitch’s Home for Soldiers and Their Orphans.
