About Us

WHO ARE WE?

The American Legion is  a nonprofit group of veterans wanting to serve their resident  communities, after giving their lives and families to safeguard America,  through  the U.S. Armed Forces. On a local level, we band together in  "posts," where the mission of  the Legion takes place daily. Legionnaires are intrinsically motivated by our Four Pillars:

  • Children and Youth Programs
  • Americanism
  • National Security
  • Veterans Rehabilitation

OUR GOAL!

The American Legion offers veterans help with  filling disability claims, discounts on vehicle rentals, hotels and  motels stays, and emergency support. The most important offering for a  veteran is the comfort of fellow veterans having your back--your six--as  you navigate through life after American military service.

Our Four Pillars  are the best guide to just how far Legionnaires will go to aid fellow veterans and their families

LET US HELP YOU!

The American Legion is one of the best sources of help for any veterans' concerns, whether they be their health, welfare, families, socializing, and especially, supporting your local community.

If you've ever felt left out of the loop of veterans happenings, now's your chance.community.

Contact American Legion Post 3 is here in Lincoln to add to your life's success.
