The American Legion

Oct 2019

American Legion post, Fort Dearborn Post 364 has been in existence for roughly 85 years dating pre Work War II providing a meeting place and social gathering for the many Veterans that live in and around the Dearborn area. This post is the nerve center for Veterans in the area and has a casual rustic setting about it that is perfectly suited as a social gathering place for friends and former comrades in arms to get together for a drink and light meals while catching up with each other and reminiscing about old times. The "light" food you can get is Frozen Pizza, Burgers, hotdogs with many of the members bringing in dishes like Lasagna to share. Relative to liquor, the beer and wine is incredibly cheap by todays standards where a glass of red wine is $2.25 and a pitcher of beer is $2.75 (no gouging here!). Aside from the daily routine this Post also has numerous social events like Holiday cookouts, Motorcycle club, Poker nights, organized sports events, Super Bowl parties, etc. On a more official note, Post 308 provides honor guard details for funerals of Local Veterans, Toys for Tots, Care packages for current military deployed overseas, donating to various charities, supporting Dearborn Flag day event, support of Dearborn homecoming and the list goes on and on. Thus is truly a wonderful organization that goes above and beyond supporting the local Dearborn area and Veterans at large providing inspiration to all on and what is means to serve, the sacrifices they have made for this country and the ongoing efforts they are doing to look out for their community at large and the current Active Military. For all the reasons stated, this is an organization you should give serious thought about joining/supporting if you are either a Vet, Son/daughter of a Vet, Military Mom or the Ladies Auxillary.
