Can watching one film help your health and save American Democracy? The answer may possibly be YES!

Congratulations to American Legion Pacific Palisades SONS for receiving the National Americanism Award at the SONS National Convention. 

American Legion Palisades Post 283 hosted its first Women's Forum, which offered a supportive platform for service women and veterans to address challenges, celebrate achievements and build a network.

Post 283 Finance Officer Todd Hickman, American Legion Department of CA Chair of gaming efforts Andre Andrews, and former 283 Vice Commander and Department of CA Mental Health Committee Chair Tess Banko handed out much-needed supplies to formerly unsheltered and disadvantaged veterans at the West LA VA.

I am thrilled to welcome Joe Ramirez to the commander's chair. Joe brings a fresh vision and boundless energy to our post, and I am confident that his leadership will inspire all of us.

Join us for the Auxiliary General Meeting on August 14! We look forward to seeing you for an evening of camaraderie and important updates.

I am extremely honored beyond words to serve as the Commander of our post this year.

It’s been an incredible year for the American Legion Ronald Reagan Palisades Post 283! Serving alongside this dedicated team of leaders has been a true honor.

I am very excited to begin my second term as President of the Auxiliary and looking forward to the 2024-2025 fiscal year. I hope everyone will join me in welcoming our three new Officers to the Auxiliary Board.

Dear Post 283 Ronald Reagan Palisades Post American Legion Family, thank you to those who came to help.

During L.A. Fleet Week, American Legion Post 283 prominently featured gaming stations alongside the USS Carl Vinson to connect with active-duty sailors and veterans, fostering community and engagement.

On Memorial Day, many wear red poppies to honor those who gave their lives in service of our country, a tradition inspired by Poet Moina Michael’s 1918 poem "We Shall Keep the Faith.” To honor their memory, live, love and be the best American you can be.
