Dear Fellow Legionnaire, Post 186 has undertaken the task of erecting a Memorial Wall to honor all of those who made the greatest sacrifice in all our wars so we, as a nation, remain free today. The wall will enclose the area surrounding the three flagpoles. The wall and the paved area it encloses will be done in brick and trimmed with granite. It will feature bronze service and organization plaques and the proper lighting of the flags and wall plaques.
If you have any questions or would like to know more about our project, please send an email to: Memorialwall@alp186.org

In this effort, we will be offering engraved paver bricks (8" x 4") to be placed in the enclosed area. The cost is $75 per brick. Or, you may simply make a donation to help us with this most worthy cause. To make a donation or purchase a brick, please click here for an order form.
