Clams were shucked, beer was drunk, cigars were smoked and the 13 service members killed in the suicide attack at Hamid Karzai International Airport in Kabul, Afghanistan in 2021 were remembered during a barbecue at the headquarters of East Rockaway American Legion Post 958.
However, the Sept. 2 get together on Labor Day was not all a somber affair, as the post, under the command of Patrick Beckley, was gifted a $2,500 donation by First Central Savings Bank in Lynbrook.
