Synopsis

Veterans of Foreign Wars no longer has enough living members to pay dues, so it is forced to close down. In an attempt to get Cotton off his hands, Hank tries to get the World War II vets to allow the Vietnam vets in the VFW. The problem is that the two different groups of war vets have a long history of animosity towards each other; the WWII vets think the Vietnam vets lost the war, and the Vietnam vets just want acceptance. Hank begrudgingly allows Cotton to stay with him and, as a result, forges a strange bond that never existed before.
