Welcome to virtual home of Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) Post 5040. This website offers a glimpse of what our Post is about, what we do, and who we are. Our membership is a little over 250 total, serving our veterans and the community in which we live in McHenry County, Illinois.

 

As yesterday's defenders of freedom, we want to welcome today's military service members into our ranks to become part of our elite group. Our common bond is the battlefield, whether it is service in the Persian Gulf, Korea, Kosovo, the war on terrorism or peace-keeping expeditionary campaigns. Your courage and sacrifice have made a difference in preserving and defending world peace.
