As many of you know yesterday was Flag Day and the U.S. Army Birthday. Our Auxiliary unit celebrated by having cake and gave out coins to those that came to celebrate with us. Here are just a few of the pictures that were taken.

🇺🇸 A Big Weekend for the American Legion Family!

This weekend we celebrated the 107th Annual State of Florida American Legion Conference, and what an incredible experience it was. We heard from inspiring guest speakers, connected with Legionnaires from across the state, and proudly celebrated our new leadership within District 1.

Post 340 continues to shine — we reached the 95th percentile for membership, and we’re on track to hit 100% membership for May. Outstanding work and dedication from our Legion Family.

The conference was packed with vendors, classes, and leadership elections, giving everyone a chance to learn, grow, and lead. And of course, some of the best moments came from the networking, camaraderie, and friendships that make our community so strong.

Here’s to continued service, unity, and momentum as we move forward together. 🇺🇸💙

Happy Birthday Army!

Today, we celebrate the birthday of the United States Army and honor the soldiers who have defended our nation since 1775.

From the Revolutionary War to today's missions around the globe, generations of Army soldiers have answered the call with an unwavering commitment to duty.

To all who have worn the Army uniform: thank you for your service and sacrifice.

Happy 251st Birthday, Army!
