Post 72 is hosting a blood drive soon! The blood donation process from the time you arrive until the time you leave takes about an hour. The donation itself is only about 8-10 minutes on average. Enjoy the feeling of accomplishment knowing you are helping to save lives. Hope to see you there!
Our Post 72 Auxiliary is holding a fundraiser at the Bees Knees (125 NC-73, West End) on Saturday, Sep 14th.
There will be military themed key fobs for sale as well as patriotic themed microwave cozies. If any Legion members have items to be donated for our table this will be greatly appreciated. If you'd like to contribute and donate items to sell, please bring your items prior to our regular Post 72 Legion meeting on Monday, 9 Sep, at 6:00 PM.
I was proud to serve you but now I am worn and tired. Please repair me, and/or replace me with a strong and new flag of which you can be proud.
If you have a flag that needs to be retired, you can get in touch with American Legion POST 72 Aberdeen NC.
Please contact us at info@ncpost72.org.
WE HAVE THE ABLITY TO ENSURE LARGE FLAGS WILL BE DONATED TO CREMATORIUMS TO BE RETIRED WITH A VETERAN IF DESIRED.
The American Legion was founded in Paris, France, at the close of World War I, and was chartered and incorporated by Congress in 1919 as a patriotic veterans organization devoted to mutual helpfulness. It is the nation’s largest veterans service organization, committed to mentoring and sponsorship of youth programs in our communities, advocating patriotism and honor, promoting a strong national security, and continued devotion to our fellow service-members and veterans. The organization now includes wartime veterans of World War II, Korea, Vietnam, Lebanon/Grenada periods, Operation Just Cause in Panama and has grown into the largest veteran's organization in the world.
