Today is the 1st, a reminder to all of us to Be the One.

A simple phone call, text message, or conversation can make a difference in the life of a fellow veteran. Take a few minutes today to check on a battle buddy, a Legionnaire, a family member, or a friend.

Together we can reduce the stigma surrounding mental health and ensure no veteran faces life's challenges alone.

🇺🇸 Be the One. Reach out. Listen. Support.

🇺🇸 Thank You, American Legion Post 291! 🇺🇸

On Friday, October 30th, Commander Paul, 1st Vice Bruce, Adjutant Lisa, and Unit President Suzanne from Al Krietemeyer Post 284 traveled to Steinhatchee to pick up a beautiful Flag Retirement Box generously built and donated by Post 291.

We are grateful for the warm welcome, delicious lunch, and outstanding hospitality. It was inspiring to see members volunteering in the canteen, kitchen, and preparing Veterans Day crosses. The teamwork, energy, and welcoming spirit on display were truly impressive.

Thank you, Comander Shelley and Post 291, for your generosity, fellowship, and dedication to veterans. The Flag Retirement Box will be a valued addition to Post 284 and a lasting reminder of your kindness.

Veterans serving veterans. For God and Country. 🇺🇸❤️🤍💙

🤠🎃 Thank You, Belleview! 🎃🤠

Thank you to the City of Belleview for hosting another wonderful Community Trunk or Treat at the Belleview Sportsplex! American Legion Al Krietemeyer Post 284 and Auxiliary Unit 284 were proud to be among the many organizations, businesses, and community groups that came together to provide a safe and fun Halloween experience for local families.

Our Rodeo-themed booth was filled with cowboys, cowgirls, a Princess and plenty of treats as we welcomed hundreds of trick-or-treaters throughout the evening. It was a pleasure meeting so many families, seeing the creative costumes, and sharing in the community spirit that makes Belleview such a special place.

A heartfelt thank you goes out to all of our American Legion Family volunteers and bingo players who donated candy, decorated, dressed up, and spent the evening representing our commitment to community service. We are grateful for the opportunity to support events that bring neighbors together while continuing our mission of serving veterans, military families, and our community.

🇺🇸🤠🎃

35 YEARS LATER, THEY FINALLY HAVE THEIR PLACE ON THE MALL. 🇺🇸

Over the weekend, Washington dedicated the new National Desert Shield and Desert Storm Memorial, just north of the Lincoln Memorial.

Nearly 700,000 Americans served in Desert Shield and Desert Storm in 1990-91. Roughly 300 never came home. One veteran at the dedication said it plainly: sometimes this part of history feels forgotten.

Not anymore. The $42 million memorial was paid for entirely by private donations. Its curving dune-shaped granite walls hold a 125-foot bas-relief telling the story from buildup to liberation. At its heart stands the Unity Shield Fountain, honoring the 41 nations of the coalition.

The ground war lasted about 100 hours. The memory should last far longer.

If you or your family served in Desert Shield or Desert Storm, tell us below. What do you remember most?
