Governor Laura Kelly officially signed the proclamation declaring Kansas POW/MIA Recognition Week, September 13โ20, 2026.
This proclamation reaffirms our commitment to the full and final accounting of every Kansas service member still missing from past and present conflicts. As the Veterans of Foreign Wars Department of Kansas, we will continue to honor their sacrifice, support their families, and ensure the POW/MIA flag flies proudly across our state.
I encourage all Posts, Districts, and Auxiliary partners to share this proclamation and participate in ceremonies, vigils, and educational events throughout the week.
We will never forget.
