Commander's Comments:

Post Roster Now Available on the WEBSITE:  You are now able to download the Post Roster from the website. To do so: Please log into the site, then go to the Membership area of the WEBSITE and download the roster to your computer. The file is a “PDF” file. Good Luck! If you have trouble with these procedures, let me know. The Post leadership roster with email addresses are also available under “Contact-Us”. Us the drop down menu under Contact Us and you will find all of the members of the Executive Committee with their email addresses.

Wounded Warrior Project: The Post is continuing to collect funds for the Fort Bragg Wounded Warrior project at every opportunity. Glass jugs are placed in some locations where donations can be dropped off. All of the collected funds go directly to wounded soldiers and their family. So when you see the Wounded Warrior jug dig deep and show your support for those who are suffering from combat wounds. We collected over $6,000 last year for this worthy endeavor. If you know of a venue that could serve as a “Wounded Warrior” collection point, please inform someone on the Executive Committee.

Veterans’ Helping Soldiers: There is a dire need for household items to help junior enlisted men and women at Fort Bragg?  Many of our lower ranked enlisted men and women qualify for “The Food Stamp” program. It is shameful that they are not afforded the meager means of self-sustainability. We are trying to assist these most important “Defenders of Freedom”. We ask for any usable household items. Anything you have that will be of need for a young soldier setting up housekeeping. Bring household items to the Hudson-MacMilan.

The American Legion was chartered by Congress in 1919 as a patriotic, mutual-help, war-time veterans organization. A community-service organization which now numbers nearly 3 million members -- men and women -- in nearly 15,000 American Legion Posts worldwide. These posts are organized into 55 departments -- one each for the 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, France, Mexico, and the Philippines.
