What is the difference between Memorial and Veterans Day?
Memorial Day is a day we as a nation take the time to Reflect, Remember, and Honor our fallen brothers and sisters and their families. The ramifications of Memorial Day stem at the end of the Civil War where more lives were claimed than any other conflict in our history. Whereas Veterans Day was established to thank our military Veterans that currently serve or have served our country in a time of peace, conflicts, and crisis. Both public holidays are extremely important; however, this Monday we remember those who did not make it home.
I ask you all to take the time to Remember, Reflect, and Honor Christopher J. Lapka who Post 105 is named in honor for his sacrifice to this country! Remember, Reflect, and Honor those who we personally knew who died in service to this country! Remember, Reflect, and Honor those who currently serve but may not make it home. Remember, Reflect, and Honor.

The American Legion was chartered and incorporated by Congress in 1919 as a patriotic veterans organization devoted to mutual helpfulness. It is the nation’s largest wartime veterans service organization, committed to mentoring youth and sponsorship of wholesome programs in our communities, advocating patriotism and honor, promoting strong national security, and continued devotion to our fellow service members and veterans.
Hundreds of local American Legion programs and activities strengthen the nation one community at a time. American Legion Baseball is one of the nation’s most successful amateur athletic programs, educating young people about the importance of sportsmanship, citizenship and fitness. The Operation Comfort Warriors program supports recovering wounded warriors and their families, providing them with "comfort items" and the kind of support that makes a hospital feel a little bit more like home. The Legion also raises millions of dollars in donations at the local, state and national levels to help veterans and their families during times of need and to provide college scholarship opportunities.
The American Legion is a nonpartisan, not-for-profit organization with great political influence perpetuated by its grass-roots involvement in the legislation process from local districts to Capitol Hill. Legionnaires’ sense of obligation to community, state and nation drives an honest advocacy for veterans in Washington. The Legion stands behind the issues most important to the nation's veterans community, backed by resolutions passed by volunteer leadership.
The American Legion’s success depends entirely on active membership, participation and volunteerism. The organization belongs to the people it serves and the communities in which it thrives.
