Veterans Affairs & Rehabilitation (VA&R)

     At  the national level, The American Legion Veterans Affairs & Rehabilitation Commission has a long record of advocating for Veterans health.  From the national website, www.legion.org, a report on their mission and activities may be found at: https://www.legion.org/documents/legion/pdf/2020_VAR.pdf . 

 

     Seattle Post 1 donates funds twice a year to the Seattle VA Hospital on Columbian Way to help with personal items for inpatients.  They also have sponsored "The Dickens Carolers", four vocalists dressed in old English period costume singing their way through the passageways just before Christmas to help brighten the holidays for those who are spending their holidays there.  The smiles and happy comments from the patients make it all worthwhile.
