Who Are We?
The American Legion was chartered by Congress in 1919 as a patriotic, mutual-help, war-time veterans' organization. A community service organization that now numbers three million members -- men and women -- in 15,000 American Legion Posts worldwide. These Posts are organized into 55 Departments -- one each for the 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, France, Mexico, and the Philippines.
The American Legion's national headquarters is in Indianapolis, Indiana, with additional offices in Washington, DC. In addition to thousands of volunteers serving in leadership and program implementation capacities in local communities to the Legion's standing national commissions and committees, the national organization has a regular full-time staff of about three hundred employees.
