The American Legion is comprised of
55 state-level "Departments" in each of the 50 states as well as the
District of Columbia, France, Mexico, Philippines and Puerto Rico.
There are approximately 15,000 local
"Posts" throughout the state level. We are the nation's largest
veterans organization with roughly 2.7 million members.
The American Legion is "Still
Serving America." This is only a part of what The American Legion does
"for God and Country."
The Department of Vermont has 71
Posts throughout the State, with more than 15,000 members.
As a whole, we donate countless
volunteer hours to Community Service, the Vermont Veterans Home and seeking
benefits and just compensation from the Department of Veterans Affairs. We have a wide array of programs for
Children and Youth, including Green Mountain Boys' State, Boy Scouts, American
Legion Baseball and the Scholarship Program.
