No veteran needs to be alone when hardships come, and no one needs to die from them. That’s what Be the One initiative is all about – not being alone and getting help.

Did You Know?
American Legion’s Sixth Annual Convention was held in Alex Bay when Gould Lyman, John B. Lyman’s brother, was the First Commander of Post 904?
“History has taught us over and over again that freedom is not free. When push comes to shove, the ultimate protectors of freedom and liberty are the brave men and women in our armed forces. Throughout our history, they’ve answered the call in bravery and sacrifice.” – Tim Pawlenty.
Family and Community Opportunities At the Legion
Family members are important to the veterans of Post 904. Without the love and support of sons, daughters, wives, husbands, sisters, and brothers, we might not survive and serve as the home away from home we’ve all come to love in Alexandria Bay. We support and encourage relatives of veterans to join one of our family memberships.
