๐ŸŽ„โš“ Stockings for Sailors โ€“ Support the USS Delaware! โš“๐ŸŽ„

The USS Delaware will be deploying in August and will be away from home throughout the holiday season. To ensure every Sailor receives a holiday stocking and a message of support from home, the American Legion Department of Delaware is collecting donations through June 30.

Because of the unique requirements of submarine deployment, monetary donations are being requested so approved items can be purchased in bulk for all Sailors. During the Department Convention, members of the Legion Family will stuff stockings and sign holiday cards that will be delivered to the USS Delaware before deployment and distributed during the holidays.

If you would like to support this effort:

๐Ÿ“ฌ Make checks payable to: Department of Delaware
๐Ÿ“ Memo Line: "Stockings for Sailors" and "Post 10 Member"
๐Ÿ“ฎ Mail to:
Department of Delaware
P.O. Box 179
Harrington, DE 19952-0179

Please consider helping us bring a little holiday cheer to the men and women serving aboard the USS Delaware while they are deployed far from home.

Thank you for supporting our Sailors!

On June 2, 2026, members of American Legion Lt. J. Allison O'Daniel Post 10 enjoyed a wonderful Veteran Social at The Vero at Newark / Juniper Village Senior Living Community.
Eighteen residents joined Post 10 members Commander Rex Gallamoza, Past Department Commander Jim Brady, Community Outreach Liaison Bill Conley, Lynn Webster, and Adjutant Chad Carmack for an afternoon of fellowship, storytelling, and camaraderie.
Participants shared personal stories and experiences, with each speaker receiving warm applause and appreciation from the group. Post 10 members also highlighted the Legion's work supporting veterans, youth programs, leadership development, and community service.
A special thank you to Nyla Thompson, Connections Director, and the entire staff at The Vero for their hospitality and for helping create a meaningful event that brought veterans, families, and community members together.

A big thank you to Post 10 member Brian Jakl and everyone who supported the Operation Dear Sailor Campaign!
Thanks to the generosity of our community, the campaign far exceeded its goal of 100 letters, collecting 262 letters and three boxes of donated goods for deployed Sailors serving overseas. These messages and care packages remind our service members that their sacrifices are appreciated and that they are not forgotten.
Brian also shared the inspiring military legacy of his grandfather, Thomas Joseph Burlace Jr., a Korean War Air Force veteran, B-29 bomber crew member, and former Commander of American Legion Post 185 in Caldwell, New Jersey. Photographs of his grandfather's original bomber jacket and cap served as a powerful reminder of the generations of Americans who have answered the call to serve.
Thank you to everyone who helped make this effort a success!

Congratulations to the Lt. J. Allison O'Daniel Post 10 Lead by Example Youth Leadership Program graduates!

This was the first cohort to complete the program, and we are very proud of the work these young leaders accomplished over the course of the three sessions. Learning Pursuit, LLC partnered with Post 10 to provide the curriculum, instruction, and program materials for the cohort. Participants worked on leadership, communication, planning, teamwork, self-discipline, and decision-making skills while learning how to lead by example.

Thank you to the students, parents, instructors, and volunteers who helped make this first cohort a success.
