American Legion Department of WYOMING

The American Legion is the nation’s largest organization of U.S. wartime veterans and their families. Since the beginning in 1919, the Legion has been instrumental in drafting and lobbying the effort for Veterans and their families. Some of the accomplishments of the American Legion are ushering in the modern VA, the GI Bill , the Post 9/11 GI Bill and today they continue the fight on Capitol Hill for benefits for veterans of all eras. The foundation of the American Legion is the four Pillars; Veterans Affairs & Rehabilitation; National Security; Americanism; and Children and Youth. The Legion in Wyoming is actively involved in all of those programs and I encourage you to contact a local Post to find out more.
