Our story

A landmark building. Generations of Alameda veterans.

American Legion Post 9 has served Alameda veterans for generations, meeting inside the Alameda Veterans Memorial Building, a Spanish Colonial Revival landmark built in 1929 and added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2007.

TBD: confirm the Post’s founding year and early history with longtime members and Post records before publishing.

Our members represent every branch of the U.S. Armed Forces and every generation of service, from Korea and Vietnam to the Gulf War and the post-9/11 era. Together, we honor those who came before us while preparing the next generation of veterans to lead with honor and integrity.

This page is intentionally a placeholder skeleton. Specific dates, past commander names, or historical claims will be added once verified against Post records.
