Today is Be the One Day at The American Legion.

The first day of every month is a reminder that one conversation, one text, or one act of compassion can make a difference in someone's life.

Whether you're looking to support a veteran, learn the warning signs, or bring Be the One to your community, resources are available to help.

Together, we can reduce the stigma surrounding mental health and prevent veteran su***de.

The red poppy speaks where words fall short — a silent tribute to the sacrifices made for our freedom by the heroes who served and died for our country in all wars. ❤️‍🩹 The poppy is a reminder that their courage will never be forgotten. 🇺🇸

After World War I, the American Legion Family brought National Poppy Day® to the United States by asking Congress to designate the Friday before Memorial Day as National Poppy Day.

The Auxiliary promotes the poppy as a symbol of the sacrifices our military have made, a symbol to open people’s hearts and inspire them to donate to help support the future of veterans, servicemembers, and their families. 🇺🇸

Today, on National Poppy Day, wear a red poppy to honor the fallen and support the living. ❤️
