UNTIL THE DEPARTMENT OF ALABAMA CONVENTION

Until The Post’s 100th Birthday

WELCOME TO POST 82

     The heart of The American Legion lies in the heart of our members, good veterans like you, that have served our nation with honor. This has been true for  over 100 years for both The American Legion at the national level and for Post 82. We received our charter in September of 1919, shortly after the end of World War One.

     You are now part of our Post 82 American Legion Family! We hope your involvement will be a rewarding experience. Currently, our American Legion Family of  Post 82 currently consists of the members. We are working on establishing an Auxiliary Unit 82, Sons of The American Legion Squadron 82, and the American Legion Riders Chapter 82. Working together our American Legion Family serve the veterans, their families, and Dale County community.

As a nonprofit veteran’s service organization, we have always done our best to serve our veterans, their families, and the Dale County community. The last few years have presented exceptional challenges to our programs and finances due to the COVID 19 epidemic. We are starting the road to recovery from these recent hard times, you and other new members will decide our future
