🇺🇸 SEPTEMBER 22 🇺🇸
VETERANS SU***DE AWARENESS & REMEMBRANCE DAY

Today, we remember the veterans we lost.

We honor the families who carry their memory.

We stand beside the veterans who are still fighting battles that many people will never see.

And most importantly—we remind every veteran reading this:

YOU MATTER.
YOUR LIFE MATTERS.
YOUR STORY IS NOT OVER. 🇺🇸

Some of our brothers and sisters came home carrying wounds that weren't visible.

Some fought in silence.

Some believed they had nowhere else to turn.

Today we remember them.

But remembrance must also lead to ACTION.

🎖️ CHECK ON YOUR BATTLE BUDDIES.

Don't assume someone is okay because they're smiling.
Don't assume they're okay because they're working.
Don't assume they're okay because they haven't asked for help.

Sometimes a simple:

“Hey, how are you REALLY doing?”

can open a conversation someone desperately needed.

🇺🇸 REAL VETERANS TALK.
🇺🇸 REAL VETERANS LISTEN.
🇺🇸 REAL VETERANS SUPPORT EACH OTHER.

And asking for help is NOT weakness.

If you're struggling right now, please reach out.

Today we remember.

Tomorrow we keep fighting for those still here.

You never know which veteran scrolling through Facebook tonight needs to see these words:

YOU ARE NOT ALONE.

🇺🇸 NO GATEKEEPING.
🇺🇸 VETERANS HELPING VETERANS.
🇺🇸 LEAVE NO ONE BEHIND.

”…The American Legion remains today an active and vigorous advocate for servicemembers, veterans, and their families here on Capitol Hill.”⁠

In recognition of The American Legion's 90th birthday in 2009, the Senate and House of Representatives passed a resolution designating Sept. 16 as .

⁠The measure was shepherded through the Senate by then-Sen. Olympia Snowe, R-Maine, who praised the Legion for its continued aid to wounded veterans and military families, legacy of community volunteerism and significant role in establishing important national legislation.
