Veterans' signs stolen

In this day of high patriotism, one has to wonder why thieves want to steal.

As Commander of the Dunnellon VFW Post 7991 located at 3107 W. Dunnellon Road (County Road 488), it is so very hard to fathom why theives want to steal our "Breakfast" signs that we display for only three days twice a month to advertise our super breakfast.

We have had 8 signs stolen in the past two months.

These thefts have been reported to the Citrus County Sheriff's Department. At a cost of $25 per sign, that, of course, adds up to $200 total funds that is NOT available to support sending goody packages over to our troops in Iraq and/or Afghanistan, much less support local food pantries.

WHY??

May God have mercy on their heartless souls.
