Welcome to China Post No. 1, one of the oldest American Legion Posts in the World. It is the only Post operating in exile in the American Legion, as well as, the only Post nominally headquartered in a Communist country.
The Post was formed in 1919, one year after the "great war," and chartered by the American Legion on 20 April 1920. The first and only American Legion Post in China at that time, the original name was General Frederick Townsend Ward Post No. 1, China.
This was announced at our reunion. This will be a moderated list, and ONLY our officers will approve messages from the membership. This will also prevent overload of 200 msgs like other list.
