“The American Legion was chartered by Congress in 1919 as a patriotic
veterans organization. Focusing on service to veterans, servicemembers and
communities, the Legion evolved from a group of war-weary veterans of
World War I into one of the most influential nonprofit groups in the United States.
Membership swiftly grew to over 1 million, and local posts sprang up across the
country. Today, membership stands at nearly 2 million in more than 13,000 posts
worldwide. The posts are organized into 55 departments: one each for the 50 states,
along with the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, France, Mexico and the Philippines.”
