American Legion Post 69
It's already going to be June as the year just slips away! We elected and installed new officers on May 9, and they are ready to get started on a new Legion year! We do have a couple of slots to fill on the Legion board so if you are interested, please give me a call. As I have said in past articles, we have a few members/patrons who think that the post is their own little playground! We come into the Post to have a drink and see our friends/comrades and enjoy ourselves! We still have a few who insist on causing problems. We are doing our best to rid the Post of the ones that have no respect for Post 69 or our Veterans and will continue to do so. We have a great post here and everyone should be proud of it so let’s get on board and show some respect. Don't forget that the Bartenders are in charge of the Social Quarters when they are on duty. Please respect that! The American Legion State Convention will be held June 26-28, 2026, at the Crown Plaza Hotel here in Albuquerque. Every member of Post 69 are encouraged to attend. Let your family leaders know if you are interested in attending. So much to learn and experience! Our membership is coming along just fantastic as we have achieved 100% once again! Let’s keep it up. Until Next Month
David Stevens Post Commander

Post 69 was fortunate to have a visit from our National Commander Jim Troiola in early 2023. Commander Troiola was kind enough to spend time with our Post leadership, staff and guests providing his insights. Our Post Commander Dee Dee Chapman presented Commander Troiola with some items unique to our Post and our area. We appreciate his visit and welcome him back in the future. Here are some photos of the event:
