American Legion Post 76

Call Directions Website

American Legion Post 76 We hold our Legion, Auxiliary and SOL meeting 2nd Mon of every month. The organization belongs to the people it serves and the communities in which it thrives.

A nonprofit venue hall available to rent for parties, weddings, family get-togethers, craft shows, flea markets, funeral luncheons, prom parties, or just about any gatherings you need. The American Legion was chartered and incorporated by Congress in 1919 as a patriotic veterans organization devoted to mutual helpfulness. It is the nation’s largest wartime veterans service organization, committed to mentoring youth and sponsorship of wholesome programs in our communities, advocating patriotism and honor, promoting strong national security, and continued devotion to our fellow service-members and veterans. The American Legion’s success depends entirely on active membership, participation and volunteerism. Post 76 will pay half of your dues for the first 2 years of membership. DM for details!

The 2027 VA disability compensation Cost-of-Living Adjustment (COLA) is 3.6%, matching the official announcement made by the Social Security Administration.

Key Details for 2027 VA Benefits

• COLA Percentage: 3.6%
• Effective Date: December 1, 2026
• First Payment Date: Since VA disability is paid in arrears, the increased payment for December 2026 will be issued on December 31, 2026 (or January 1, 2027, depending on the exact payment calendar).
• Automatic Application: Veterans do not need to file or submit any paperwork; the 3.6% increase applies automatically to base disability compensation, Dependency and Indemnity Compensation (DIC), Special Monthly Compensation (SMC), and pension benefits.

Estimated Examples of the 3.6% Increase

• 10% Rating: Rises from $180 to approximately $187 per month.
• 20% Rating: Rises from $357 to approximately $370 per month.
• 60% Rating (no dependents): Rises from $1,435 to approximately $1,487 per month
