Walk to Stay in the Fight

Post 1 participated in Every Third Saturday’s (ETS) Stay in the Fight walk on Saturday, September 26, an event focused on raising awareness of veteran suicide. Commander Sammi, Mollie, and a friend from Warriors Return Cohort 24 joined the 2.3-mile walk, which symbolized the 23 veterans lost to suicide each day. The well-attended event also featured veteran resource groups and food vendors, along with live music.

Post 1’s Commander’s Project for 2026–2027 is The American Legion’s Be the One program, which focuses on veteran suicide prevention through awareness, training, and support. Participating in the Stay in the Fight walk was a natural extension of that project.  @everythirdsaturday
