A Time of Camaraderie and Community
Every Tuesday, a very special gathering brews at Kaffee Meister in Hayden, Idaho. From 2 to 4 PM, the Veteran Coffee Hour opens its doors to those who have served our nation with valor and dedication. Hosted by David Erickson and the Special Forces Association Chapter XLIII, this is more than just a coffee meet-up; it’s a hub of shared stories, support, and camaraderie.
The event is informal—drop in at your convenience between 2 and 4 PM—and enjoy a cup of coffee in good company. It’s a time to reconnect with old friends, make new ones, and perhaps exchange stories that only fellow veterans can truly appreciate.
The gatherings are held at the cozy Kaffee Meister, located at 9212 N Government Way, a place that has become a staple for local community events.
The flyer advertising the event is reminiscent of a time when unity and collective effort were at the forefront of the national consciousness. It depicts a paratrooper, a symbol of bravery and commitment, which resonates with the essence of the Veteran Coffee Hour.
David Erickson, the organizer, is reachable at 949-566-3326 or via email at david@sfa43.org. The Special Forces Association is known for its work in supporting veterans and their families, and this event is one of many that show their commitment to community support.
The motto “De Oppresso Liber” — to free the oppressed — is more than a Special Forces motto; it’s a reminder of the higher ideals our veterans strive for, and the unity that these coffee hours foster is a testament to those values.
Whether you are a veteran, a family member, or simply a supporter of our armed forces, consider stopping by. It’s a small gesture, but one that goes a long way in showing appreciation for those who have served. Let’s raise our mugs to those who have given so much and join in on the Veteran Coffee Hour!
