Leander Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 10427 and its Auxiliary. VFW Post 10427 (Leander, Texas) is an organization serving the Veterans of Foreign Wars & the local community. There are so many reasons to be thankful!

VFW Post 10427 from Leander, Texas works very hard to uphold all that it means to be a member of the VFW. For the Good of the Order the men & women of VFW Post 10427 join with the community to support our active and returned troops helping in any way possible. We should never have to be reminded what it means to be citizens of the United States Of America. Lift your head, stand proud & join our wonderful organization. The VFW traces its roots back to 1899 when veterans of the Spanish-American War (1898) and the Philippine Insurrection (1899-1902) founded local organizations to secure rights and benefits for their service. Many arrived home wounded or sick. There was no medical care or veterans' pension for them, and they were left to care for themselves. In their misery, some of these veterans banded together and formed organizations which would become known as the Veterans of Foreign Wars of the United States. After chapters were formed in Ohio, Colorado and Pennsylvania, the movement quickly gained momentum. By 1915, membership grew to 5,000; by 1936, membership was almost 200,000. Since then, the VFW's voice had been instrumental in establishing the Veterans Administration, creating a GI bill for the 20th century, the development of the national cemetery system and the fight for compensation for Vietnam vets exposed to Agent Orange and for veterans diagnosed with Gulf War Syndrome. In 2008, VFW won a long-fought victory with the passing of a GI Bill for the 21st Century, giving expanded educational benefits to America's active-duty Service Members, and members of the Guard and Reserves, fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan. The VFW also has fought for improving VA medical centers services for women veterans. Besides helping fund the creation of the Vietnam, Korean War, World War II and Women in Military Service memorials, the VFW in 2005 became the first veterans' organization to contribute to building the new Disabled Veterans for Life Memorial, which opened in November, 2010. Annually, the 2.1 million members of the VFW and its Auxiliary contribute more than 11 million hours of volunteerism in the community, including participation in Make A Difference Day and National Volunteer Week.

✈️ DID YOU KNOW DISABLED VETERANS CAN FLY FOR FREE? ✈️
Attention Leander VFW Post 10427 family and friends! There is an incredible travel perk available to our brother and sister veterans that many don't realize exists.
Under the John S. McCain National Defense Authorization Act, veterans with a 100% Permanent and Total (P&T) service-connected disability rating are eligible for free flights through the military's Space-Available (Space-A) Travel Program.
If you or a veteran you know meets the criteria, you can hop on military "hops" operated by the Air Mobility Command (AMC) completely free of charge.
Here is what you need to know to take advantage of this benefit:
🔹 Where can you fly?
You can travel within the Continental United States (CONUS) or directly between CONUS and Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, Guam, and American Samoa. (Note: International flights to foreign countries are not available under this specific veteran category due to customs and foreign agreement rules).
🔹 What is the catch?
Flights are on a standby basis. Active-duty personnel and emergency travelers take priority, placing 100% P&T veterans in Priority Category 6. It requires flexibility, but it’s an amazing way to see the country.
🔹 What paperwork is required?
To sign up and board, you cannot just use a standard VA health card. You must obtain a DD Form 2765 (DoD Uniformed Services ID and Privilege Card) from a local military ID office, and it helps to have your VA P&T summary letter on hand.
Have questions or need help navigating your VA paperwork to confirm your P&T status? Stop by the VFW Post 10427 at 8760 Ranch Road 2243 in Leander! Our officers and community are always here to help you get the benefits you earned.
Safe travels, and let’s get those wheels up! 🛫

To be eligible for Space-A flights, Veterans must have a permanent and total service connected disability rating.

It is with a heavy heart that we inform everyone of the passing of our beloved comrade, Glen “Chief” Crum, who went to be with the Lord on October 9th, 2026. 🕊️⚓
"Chief" was a pillar of our community, a dedicated brother on the road, and a proud veteran. He honorably served 24 years in the United States Navy as an Electronics Technician, achieving the rank of Chief Electronics Technician (ETC).
Beyond his distinguished military career, he was a cornerstone of our Unit 10 Motorcycle Group and an incredibly talented pool player who dominated many local tournaments with a sharp eye and a quick wit. He lived life with precision, dedication, and a deep sense of brotherhood.
For those who wish to pay their respects and celebrate his life, services will be held this weekend:
📅 Date: Sunday, October 18th, 2026
🕓 Time: 4:00 PM
📍 Location: VFW Leander Post Hall (Post 10427)
👉 Address for reference: 8760 RR 2243, Leander, TX 78641
Please join us as we honor his legacy, share our favorite memories, and give Chief the send-off he deserves.
Fair winds and following seas, Chief. Your watch is over, brother. Rest in peace. 🏍️🎱🇺🇸
