La Société des Quarante Hommes et Huit Chevaux (The Society of Forty Men and Eight Horses) is an independent, by invitation, honor society of American veterans, more commonly known as “The Forty & Eight”. Membership is by invitation, and open only to honorably discharged veterans and honorably serving members of the United States Armed Forces.

Army Strong

The U.S. Army Memorial Monument will be a life-sized bronze replica of the Battlefield Cross, an iconic symbol of honor and remembrance. Using Vietnam-era boots, helmet, dog tags, and an M16 rifle, the monument will be mounted on a three-foot-tall green granite pedestal, engraved with commemorative wording and the official U.S. Army seal.

From the Chef de Gare

Thank you for dropping by Voiture 1120’s webpage. On top on everything in the “Who We Are” section, I would also like everyone to know we do more than contribute to worthy causes; we are also about the veteran. We are a veteran service organization that in known as the “Fun and Honor Society”.  

If you miss the comradeship and the humor that only veterans understand please contact us under the “Membership” section so we can get you involved in the fun and activities.
