NATIONAL RESOURCE DIRECTORY
 
As a military member, veteran or the family member, have you ever searched for resources you or your family need but did not know where to turn for help?
The need for assistance can be overwhelming, and not knowing where to go or who you can turn to can sometimes add to the stress of the current situation.
There are many community resources you can turn to, including your County Veterans Service Officer or the Appleton American Legion Post 38; however, the assistance needed is on a much larger scale, that is when you need to turn to the National Resource Directory at https://www.nrd.gov/misc/ResourceCategories
This website contains a plethora of information from housing resources, to benefits, to military adaptive sports programs, just to name a few. The website is easy to read, and you are able to choose a font (at the top left) for adaptive reading. Resources are categorized making it easy to locate much needed information.
Make sure to bookmark this website as it is a convenient, easy to read resource for military personnel and veterans.

BRICK BY BRICK VETS AND REGIMENT GAMING
 
Brick by Brick Vets, an online gaming platform is using Twitch (used by many gamers) as a way of hosting online Q&A's with VA experts. Using gaming platforms is working for the younger generation of veterans. Much like Brick by Brick Vets, the American Legion has its own sponsored gaming platform to reach veterans - Regiment Gaming.
Regiment Gaming, the 𝙤𝙛𝙛𝙞𝙘𝙞𝙖𝙡 American Legion Sponsored gaming organization and 𝐀𝐦𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐚'𝐬 𝐋𝐚𝐫𝐠𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐌𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐲 𝐆𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐎𝐫𝐠𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐳𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧.
Regiment Gaming does the same as Brick by Brick Vets by hosting regular meetings with VA experts. This approach seems to be working as it appears to be the preferred method for younger veterans to get information as well as involved in the Legion. It's a unique opportunity for younger veterans to connect to expert and services while doing something they enjoy. To learn more about Regiment Gaming, visit here: https://regiment.gg/
Link to Discord which is where they hold the meetings and events: https://discord.com/invite/mKUzNmB (you must verify your veteran status to get all the benefits).
If you are a veteran looking for a different way to get the information you need to know, check either of these two organizations out.

FEBRUARY

Four Chaplains Ceremony

Lt. George L. Fox (Methodist), Lt. Alexander D. Goode (Jewish), Lt. Clark V. Poling (First Dutch Reformed Church) and Lt. John P. Washington (Catholic). What did four men of different faiths all have in common? They were all Chaplains assigned to the USAT Dorchester.
The 368-foot steamship which previously served as a luxury liner, the USAT Dorchester was operated by the War Shipping Administration. It’s mission: sail from Newfoundland to Greenland to transport 906 troops. The ship would have to navigate icy seas and pass through waters infested with German U-boats.
After midnight on Feb. 3, 1943, the Dorchester was torpedoed by a U-boat in the Labrador Sea off Greenland and went down in 20 minutes, according to official records.
The four men listed above are forever remembered as heroes, who in the face of certain death, gave up their lifesaving gear to save their fellow troops. Their memory is forever memorialized.
On Monday, February 3, 2025, the Appleton American Legion held its own memorial service honoring the faithful service and ultimate sacrifice of these four men of God. They were brave until the end, comforting those who were scared, who lost the will to live, and those who knew they had sailed their final voyage that fateful night.
It is a privilege for our Post 38 members and the Post 38 family to remember such bravery, honor such courage, and pay tribute true faithfulness.

 

         

 

JANUARY

MIDWINTER CONFERENCE

Press Release
Story By: Catherine Kutzleb, Appleton American Legion Post 38
Photos/Video: Catherine Kutzleb
One may ask, what does the American Legion and Pillars Adult and Family Shelter have in common? The answer is simple – a mutual desire to help veterans and others in need [in the Appleton area] who may be struggling with housing insecurity; and to help an organization within our own community, bringing awareness to homelessness, especially during the winter months.
On Saturday, January 18, 2025, the American Legion held its Mid-Winter Conference in Appleton, WI at the Hilton Paper Valley Hotel and Convention Center. Almost 600 Legionnaires and Legion Family members attended the event. It was during the convention, the Legion Family, which include all Posts, Auxiliary members, Sons of the American Legion (SAL) and Legion Riders, came together collecting items for our local shelter which provides both individual and family shelter. This year, it was determined by the 9th District, Pillars would be the recipient of such a sizeable donation.
Pillars has long served the Appleton community including those veterans who may be experiencing homelessness or housing insecurity. According to Pillar’s Development Manager, Emily Boettcher, [corresponding with Post Commander, Jan Hoffman], Pillars provided assistance to “56 veteran clients” for Fiscal Year 2024 (October 1, 2023 through September 30, 2024).
Pillar’s vision is simple; “envision a creative, compassionate community that collaborates to find innovative, effective solutions so experiences of homelessness are rare and brief and everyone as a place to call home.”
Our donation included a variety of items, including a substantial sock donation (donated by Wigwam Socks) an item desperately needed, especially during the colder weather months. Appleton American Legion Post 38 personnel put together 15 laundry baskets which included bath towel sets and various personal items; some with a focus on women’s health and wellness. Numerous items were donated in accordance with requests from the various Pillar locations – 6 in total, throughout the Appleton area.
Once the items were collected, they were loaded into a truck and delivered to Pillars by Wisconsin 9th District’s 2nd Vice Commander, Migeal Babino; Kennen, Wisconsin’s Post 362 Commander, Rosanna Bogle, and Sergeant-at-Arms, Larry Bogle, and Appleton’s Post 38 Communications Director, Catherine Kutzleb to the Pillars location at 605 Hancock Street, Appleton. All items donated were graciously received by Pillar staff members Nikki, Lauren, Emily, and Rye (last names withheld for security reasons).
The Pillar’s staff on duty remarked this was one of the largest single donations they have received, noting the donation would greatly benefit numerous individuals across all their facilities. The smiles in the photos capture the joy of both giving and receiving, especially when donations are desperately needed.

LONGEVITY AWARD PRESENTATION
MONDAY, NOVEMBER 4. 2024 
It says a lot about an organization when individuals have been members of such for 30, 40, 50 or more years.
It says it is a place where individuals feel as if they belong, and it provides a place of camaraderie. It is also a testament that one believes in the mission of the organization – in this case, the Appleton American Legion Post 38.
On Monday, November 4, 2024, Post 38 Commander, Jan Hoffman, had the pleasure of presenting members of the Appleton American Legion Post 38 with their longevity awards. Awards are given in 5-year increments to members who have continued service with Post 38.
We are so grateful for your service to our nation and now your continued service to our Post 38 family. Thank you all for supporting our mission of veterans helping veterans.

SEPTEMBER POST MEETING

old glory honor flight check presentation
Wednesday, September 4, 2024
 

On Wednesday, September 4, 2024, the Appleton American Legion Post 38 had the distinct honor of presenting Ms. Diane MacDonald, Executive Director, Old Glory Honor Flight (OGHF) in Appleton, WI with a check for $7,500 to fly veterans to their national memorials in Washington, DC.

Diane has been with the Old Glory Honor Flight for over 15 years, and she recalled her first encounter with American Legion Post 38. MacDonald related how the partnership with Post 38 began with a small “$10.00 donation.” Diane recalled that donation during her visit to the Post, “…wasn’t what I expected, but OK, it’s a start.”

That initial donation set the wheels in motion for Post 38 to do more. Answering the call to service in supporting fellow veterans, our partnership with Old Glory Honor Flight over the years has expanded significantly in raising funds so veterans can take their trips to their memorials. The Appleton Community has equally supported Post 38 in accomplishing its goals, and this years’ Brat Fry Extravaganza on August 21, 2024, raised an impressive $7,500.

Since its inception, the Old Glory Honor Flight has flown 7,000 veterans to see their memorial in Washington DC. The first veterans flown out of the Fox Valley in 2009 were World War II veterans. Sadly, due to delays in constructing their memorial, many of these same veterans did not have the opportunity to see the memorials dedicated to their service. Additionally, the chaperones who accompanied these veterans were Vietnam veterans, and they wanted to ensure the WWII veterans saw their memorial before it was too late.

On June 6, 2024, Old Glory Honor Flight, working in conjunction with American Airlines, flew sixty-eight veterans to Normandy, for the D-Day remembrance event. As Diane stated, “the average age of these veterans was 100.”

Currently, OGHF is looking for Korean and Vietnam veterans to place them on the flight wait list. Any honorably discharged veteran, regardless of where they served (overseas or stateside), whose service is prior to May 7, 1975, can apply to be placed on the list for their flight. This year, on Wednesday, September 11, 2024, the Old Glory Honor Flight will fly Mission 70.

Ms. MacDonald informed Post 38 members during the membership meeting, with the $7,500 donation, it will allow fifteen veterans to fly free of charge to Washington, DC to see their memorials. Post 38 is extremely grateful to its members for their hard work and the many hours of dedication in making this year’s Brat Fry a tremendous success. We are equally humbled for the support of the Appleton community who came out in mass supporting the American Legion Post 38 family, and all the wonderful partners who made this year’s event an enormous success.

 

                                                

Post 38 Commander, Jan Hoffman and Third Vice Wayne Senneke                                      Ms. Diane MacDonald addressing Post 38 members

Present Ms. Diane MacDonald, Executive Director, Old Glory Honor Flight                          and our partnership. 

with a check for $7,500. 

-End-

Thank you! On behalf of our Post Commander, Jan Hoffman, and the leadership [team] of Appleton American Legion Post 38 would like to give a heartfelt “thank you” to all those who came out and participated in our Brat Fry Extravaganza, on August 21, 2024, supporting the Old Glory Honor Flight.

We would like to give special recognition to our partners this year including: The Community Blood Center (Every Drop Counts-Donate Blood Campaign), Fox Valley Humane Association (Pet Adoption Awareness Campaign), Y100 WNCY and 93.5 Duke FM - Wisconsin, all who made this year’s event most memorable.

Your support of our Brat Fry was overwhelming, and we are happy to announce we not only met last year’s funds of $6500, but we exceeded it, by raising $7,500 for the Old Glory Honor Flight. We will be presenting this organization with a check during our September meeting.

We are so proud to be an integral part of the Appleton Community and your support as always, is greatly appreciated – Thank you!
