Emil A. Blackmore Museum offers chance to explore the buildings National Headquarters has occupied over the past century.
From The American Legion’s earliest days, the National Headquarters buildings have represented the organization's commitment to honor and remember the sacrifices of war, and to support veterans and their families. A newly published exhibit from the Emil A. Blackmore Museum offers visitors a chance to explore the buildings National Headquarters has occupied over the past century and discusses the work of its staff.
The online exhibit offers visitors a glimpse into National Headquarters with newly digitized historic photos, artifacts and audio recordings from every phase of the last century, from the temporary offices in New York City to the memorial buildings in Indianapolis and Washington, D.C. Visitors will also be introduced to the staff who have made National Headquarters function over the past 100-plus years and learn how their work has impacted The American Legion's growth.
Visitors can browse the exhibit by navigating to the Emil A. Blackmore Museum's website. Three past exhibits are also available, and visitors can browse all exhibits here.
