The American Legion was chartered by Congress in 1919 as a patriotic veterans organization.

Membership swiftly grew to over 1 million, and local posts sprang up across the country. Toda

y, membership stands at over 2.4 million in 14,000 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.
