VFW Ladies Auxiliary president Armithea “Sissy” Borel is an admitted “windy,” or fan of Gone With the Wind. She recently visited Clayton County, the place that inspired the book and film adaptation. This visit was part of her two-day Georgia tour, which included local siteseeing and a dinner at VFW Post 5080 in Lake City.
The dinner featured Gone With the Wind memorabilia, but the visit represented much more than that. Borel’s brother was injured when the soldier walking in front of him stepped on a landmine. This cost her brother his right leg and part of his face, but the VA hospital saved his life. The VFW and Ladies Auxiliary is part of a concerted effort to support soldiers upon their return and ensure that they receive the support they need in recognition for their service.
