The American Legion was chartered by Congress in 1919 as a patriotic, mutual-help war-time veteran’s organization. The American
Legion is a community-service organization which now numbers nearly 3 million members – men and woman – nearly 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.
American Legion Brick Post 348 is located on the banks of the beautiful Metedeconk
River in Brick New Jersey. Post 348 has over 1300 members making the membership one of the largest in New Jersey. Active
and involved, the dedicated Veterans, Auxiliary, S.A.L., and Legion Riders always seem to have a plan for fun and fund raising in
the works.
Members of Brick Memorial Post 348 of the American Legion donated $10,000 to Vetwork on May 1st 2012. Vetwork is a non-profit organization dedicated to assisting our honorably discharged veterans. Brick Memorial Post has followed a commitment to support this worthy organization for a number of years. Pictured left to right:
