Tucked away, on a quiet street off Gravois Road just west of Fenton, is the GrandSlam. Every Wednesday morning this bar and grill becomes a gathering place for local Vietnam veterans.
A civilian looking for a quiet cup of coffee on a Wednesday morning won’t find it at the Grand Slam. Instead, the restaurant is filled with a lively crowd of handshaking, backslapping and welcoming veterans who show up to offer each other companionship and support.
