History Books

Bring your Post History (scrapbook), Post Narrative, and ALR History books to Headquarters at the Department Convention, Hilton Orlando Lake Buena Vista, room Grand 1-2, no later than 3:30 pm, on Thursday, June 11, 2026. There will be a table setup to place your book.  At the end of judging please pick up your book starting Friday.

If you cannot make it to Department Convention you can mail your submission to the following address no later than June 3, 2026:

• The American Legion, Dept of Florida
  Attn: Bekki Boarman
  1912 Lee Rd

Due to changes at the National level, there is no longer a History Contest for Post History and Narrative books. However, if you would like your History or Narrative to be showcased (i.e. displayed on an online exhibit) please provide a copy of your book on a flash drive.

Want to learn more about being a Historian? Make sure to attend the Historian Class, Friday, June 12th, while at Department Convention.

Special Thanks to Our 2026 Sponsors & General Exhibitors
