June is PTSD Awareness Month, and PTSD can affect veterans, servicemembers, and their families long after military service ends. The good news? No one has to face it alone.

That's why The American Legion's Be the One campaign encourages us all to check in, listen without judgment, and help connect those who may be struggling to the support they deserve.

Learn more about PTSD and access free resources from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs: ptsd.va.gov/understand/awareness/promo_materials.asp

You don't have to have all the answers. Sometimes, being the one who reaches out can make all the difference.

Today is Be the One Day at The American Legion.

The first day of every month is a reminder that one conversation, one text, or one act of compassion can make a difference in someone's life.

Whether you're looking to support a veteran, learn the warning signs, or bring Be the One to your community, resources are available to help.

Together, we can reduce the stigma surrounding mental health and prevent veteran su***de.

**Get Your Poppy from the American Legion Auxiliary Members at Eagle Stop in Versailles Today**

Poppy Day is celebrated in countries around the world. The American Legion Family brought National Poppy Day® to the United States by asking Congress to designate the Friday before Memorial Day, as National Poppy Day.

On the Friday before Memorial Day, wear a red poppy to honor the fallen and support the living who have worn our nation's uniform.

The red poppy is a nationally recognized symbol of sacrifice worn by Americans since World War I to honor those who served and died for our country in all wars. It reminds Americans of the sacrifices made by our veterans while protecting our freedoms.

Led by the American Legion Auxiliary, each year members of The American Legion Family distribute poppies with a request that the person receiving the flower make a donation to support the future of veterans, active-duty military personnel and their families with medical and financial needs.
