- 1st Sunday, 2:00 PM
In 1991 a handful of veterans chartered Detachment 1485 — Cypress, TX. From that first meeting the detachment grew into a hall that still marks the year with a memorial service, a community project, and a table full of people who know one another’s stories.
People point to the detachment for the Memorial Day observance and for the quieter help that never makes a program — Cypress. The members would rather be useful than famous, which is why the hall still smells like coffee on meeting night.
The regular meeting is 1st Sunday, 2:00 PM. Anyone planning to visit should confirm the night before they come, because a funeral detail or a weather delay can move it. Between meetings the members stay in touch the old way: at the hall, and through the officers listed on this sample site — Cypress, TX.

Showing up for a Saturday of hall repairs — Cypress

What the notebook says so far
Late summer the detachment looked back at the notebook. The honor detail had been out more than once, the community table had fed a crowded room, and the officers reminded everyone that the next business meeting is 1st Sunday, 2:00 PM. This note is a sample of how the detachment might tell that year — Cypress, TX.
