4th of July Celebration

The members of VFW Post 6908 and its Auxiliary extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone who helped make Johnson County's 2026 Independence Day Celebration an overwhelming success. To our volunteers, sponsors, participants, first responders, local businesses, civic organizations, performers, elected officials, and the thousands of community members who joined us throughout the day—thank you for celebrating America's 250th anniversary with us. From the bicycle ride and first responder events to the parade, family activities, live entertainment, and spectacular fireworks, every part of the celebration reflected the pride, patriotism, and community spirit that make Johnson County such a special place to call home. We are honored to have worked alongside so many dedicated people, and we look forward to building on this year's success for many celebrations to come. Thank you for helping us create memories that will last a lifetime.

IN-COUNTRY

A satirical reflection by Author/Artist Phil Fehrenbacher

Phil enlisted in the Army in 1965 where you served for years in Vietnam.  He became a graphic designer and has worked for the state of Oregon for 26 years.  He retired in 2003 and started the Cartoon "In-Country".  The cartoons reflect his experiences during his tour of duty in South Vietnam.


There is a new cartoon everyday.
