Current Officers
​
​American Legion officers are the backbone of every Post’s success. They provide leadership, structure, and direction—ensuring the Post fulfills its mission to serve veterans, their families, and the community. Each officer holds unique responsibilities, but together they form a cohesive team that embodies the Legion’s four pillars: Veterans Affairs & Rehabilitation, National Security, Americanism, and Children & Youth.
​
From the Commander who leads with vision, to the Finance Officer who safeguards the Post’s funds, and the Adjutant who keeps operations running smoothly, each officer plays a vital role in sustaining our mission of service.
These leaders organize community programs, mentor new members, honor our nation’s heroes, and keep the spirit of camaraderie alive. Their dedication ensures that the American Legion continues to stand “For God and Country.”
