Taiwan has had four VFW posts established here, of which only Post 9957 in Taipei  survives.     The withdrawal of U.S. troops from  Taiwan led to the demise of two posts, and declining post participation of post 727 to having less than a quorum for meetings led to consolidation with 9957.    Post 9957 suffers from lack of active participation, and is striving to revitalize itself.   

In 1971, Post 727 established a Post Home with canteen, which ceased operations in the late eighties coinciding with the decline in active members. Post 727 in 1983 voted to accept the transfer of Pup Tent 15 from Post 89 (Tainan) to Taichung - due to the closing of Post 89.  The Cooties from former Pup Tent 15 transferred to Pup Tent 11 in the Philippines.   Post 727 has never changed location,  nor disestablished and later re-established, but was forced to consolidate or close - and chose to consolidate with 9957.

Two members of Post 727 have served as Department Commanders; All American Department Commander Harry A. Bowser (1979-1980) and All American Department Commander Bill Wichmann (2001-2002). The Post has had one National officer; Bill Wichmann the Chairman of the National Military Assistance Program (2002-2003).   Post members holding higher offices in Department are Bill Wichmann who was the Department Judge Advocate.  Orville Humfleet served as the District IV (Taiwan) Commander and Post Commander for several years.   Bill Wichmann is also Past All Star Grand Commander (2000-2001) and Orville Humfleet was an All Star Grand Commander (2009-2011).  Commander Ted Steppe was the Post commander that facilitated consolidation with Post 9957.
