Welcome to the History section.

Here we’ll give you an idea of the rich and varied background of Post 43. The Post began more than ninety years ago in 1919. By a quirk of bookkeeping, Post 43 received its charter several days before the national organization received theirs from the United States Congress. But, then Hollywood’s always been a bit ahead of the times.


As the doughboys of World War I began returning to Hollywood and to the jobs they’d left to fight the war to end all wars, they came back carrying the seed of the idea of an organization of, by and for veterans – The American Legion.

Newsflash

The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and VA have published the most authoritative analysis on the extent and nature of homelessness among our country’s veterans. “Veteran Homeless: A Supplemental Report to the 2009 Annual Homeless Assessment to Congress” details the study’s findings, released in February, in a first-ever collaborative report of its kind between two government agencies. The most noteworthy finding: nearly 76,000 veterans were homeless on a given night in 2009, and around 136,000 veterans spent at least one night in a shelter during that year. READ MORE
