Commander's Message

Veterans Day is almost upon us. This is a good time for all members of Post 146 to renew their commitment to uphold the four pillars of the American Legion and become active in service to our Veterans and community. Most of all I want to thank your for your service, and ask you to serve again.

Our Scouting program is back on track. November 9th I will be attending the Veterans Day program at El Camino High School and will be working on getting our school medal program, Oratorical contest, and Boys State back on track there. I need someone to do the same with Oceanside High School and the Army/Navy Academy in Carlsbad.

On Halloween I stopped by Post 149 and donated blood. This is just another example of how Post 146 could be working with the Elks to serve the community
