Four brothers. Same company. Same war.

Albert, William, Harry, and Charles Atkinson all served in Company G during World War I. Four sons from one Doylestown family, all in uniform at the same time.

Albert R. Atkinson, Jr. — our namesake — was killed in action in France on September 7, 1918. He was a Sergeant. He was 24.

When our founders gathered at Colonel George Ross's law office in August 1919 to charter this Post, they chose Albert's name. Not a general. Not a politician. A local kid who didn't come home.

Seven Gold Star mothers sat in the front row the day our Post home was dedicated on January 21, 1934.

Seven families who gave everything.

Commander Andrew Schott financed the building himself — no public fundraising, no campaigns. He just did it. And when Lt. Governor Thomas Shannon addressed the crowd, he spoke directly to those seven women.
