QUARTERLY REPORTER
(2nd Quarter)


Our Post 38 Brat Fry is in full swing and we are lovin' all the guests who are coming out to support us.
You asked and we listened, and we have expanded our menu. Why go to that drive-thru place and get a lackluster burger when you can get a fresh, cooked brat, hot dog or hamburger with all your favorite toppings (catsup, mustard, relish, onion, pickles, and sauerkraut).
This year we are featuring the American Legion Special. This is a collision of meat happiness. A juicy hamburger, topped with a brat patty. You can have this with or without cheese.
So, stop by Post 38 on Wednesdays and get your grub on. Here, the food is hot and the drinks are strong and cold!




The American Legion Auxiliary Unit 38 - Appleton WI will be holding their annual Poppy Day distribution event on Friday May 8th and Saturday May 9th, 2026. This is one of the larger fundraisers for the Auxiliary Unit 38.
Our American Legion Auxiliary Unit 38 has been a firm and steadfast anchor in the Appleton American Legion Post 38 and all of our activities. We are asking that you support them with the same zest and zeal.

MISSIONS OF HONOR
Flights for Veterans of the Global War on Terrorism (GWOT)

Missions of Honor is a nonprofit organization dedicated to honoring U.S. veterans through meaningful trips and experiences that foster reflection, connection, and gratitude. There are two Missions currently available. See the poster below!
As many of you know who follow our media pages, the Appleton American Legion Post 38 has been a large supporter of the Old Glory Honor Flight for a few year now. We started off small and have expanded our support to the Brat Fry Extravaganza that occurs every August.
Old Glory Honor Flight was founded in 2009 in Appleton, Wisconsin, by a dedicated group of local volunteers who shared a deep passion for honoring veterans. Their goal was simple yet profound: to open an Honor Flight hub serving Northeast Wisconsin and give World War II veterans the opportunity to visit the memorials built in their honor.
In 2023, many of those same community leaders founded Missions of Honor—again based in Appleton—with the goal of expanding their reach to a new generation of veterans. Born out of a growing awareness of the mental health challenges faced by America’s heroes, they recognized the need to create experiences fostering reflection, connection, and healing. Through programs like the Freedom to Liberty: A Mission of Healing Retreat, they began offering opportunities for veterans to find peace, reconnect with their battle buddies, and take the next step on their journey toward healing.
Later that year, their first Freedom to Liberty Retreat brought veterans of the Global War on Terrorism to New York City for three nights of reflection and renewal. Participants visited the 9/11 Memorial & Museum, the Statue of Liberty, and the Freedom Tower, while hearing directly from 9/11 first responders and distinguished veterans—including a Medal of Honor recipient—who shared their stories of hope, resilience, and faith.
Recognizing the shared mission, values, and community roots between Old Glory Honor Flight and Missions of Honor, they made the decision to merge the two organizations, with the merger set to be finalized in early 2026 – now Missions of Honor.
They have served well over 8,000 veterans from Northeast Wisconsin and beyond—through missions to Washington, D.C.; Pearl Harbor; Normandy, France; Vietnam; New York City; and more. We’ve also hosted visits to the traveling Vietnam Wall, The Highground, and the Middle East Conflicts Wall Memorial.

On Monday, March 2, 2026, American Legion Auxiliary Unit 38, President Leigh Splitt, presented the Appleton American Legion Post 38, Commanded by Jarrod Coulter with a 250-year anniversary flag. It was a gift in celebrating the Legion's 107th Birthday.
Additionally, the American Legion Auxiliary Unit 38 provided an outstanding meal as well as served birthday cake. It is a true tribute to mutual desire to serve our veterans and our community. Post 38 is extremely fortunate to have such an alliance.
The flag will be flown at all Legion events this coming year. Thank you American Legion Auxiliary Unit 38 for such a thoughtful gift and for providing a wonderful meal for our Legionnaires.
