It's Time to Honor our Veterans

Help us Honor and show pride in our Veterans. In cooperation with the City of Savannah, the Savannah American Legion Post 287 is proud to provide the opportunity to honor a local veteran or those actively serving in the military by offering a Veteran’s Banner. The Veteran’s Banner will hang on Main Street and around the square in Savannah for approximately one month in conjunction with Memorial Day, 4th of July and Veteran’s Day for two consecutive years.


There are spots for only 100 Veteran’s Banners. The 18”x 36” banner will have the Veterans name, branch of service and service dates. After the banner's two year tour is completed, the banner is retired. The American Legion will then contact the sponsor to give them the retired banner or give sponsors the opportunity to re-enlist the banner.

Applications

The 2021 Veteran’s Banner applications will be accepted starting immediately. Submission will be chosen on a first come, first serve and space available basis for one of the 100 Veteran Banner spots. The application, photo and payment must be received prior to the deadline to be one of the 100 spots for Memorial Day.


Go to the website at AmLegionPost287.org for more information and online submission. You can also email the application and photo to AmLegionVetBanner@gmail.com

Photos

In-uniform pictures with quality definition and color will appear best on the banner. Scanned photographs need to be of 300dpi resolution. Digital photographs need to be of high resolution. Printed photographs should be 8x10 with good resolution and no defects. Please put an adhesive note on the back of the photo with the Veterans name on it to help us with keeping track.

Biography (optional)

You are also welcome to submit a short biography of your Veteran. The biography may include any Wars, conflicts or major operations that they participated in, major awards or devices and the recognition for those awards and family in the military.
