    Prattsville Post Gets Award of Excellence

    Virgil E. Deyo Post 1327 in the Greene County community of Prattsville has received the Department Commander’s Award of Excellence for its “dedication to our men and women in uniform, our veterans, their families and your community.”

    Among their activities, the post and its auxiliary recently raised over $16,000 to purchase comfort and entertainment items for patients at Stratton VA Medical Center.

    Greene County Commander Tim Burch accepted the award on behalf of the post in a ceremony held March 21 during a meeting of the Legion’s 3rd District at North Albany Post 1610. Department Vice Commander Gary Schacher and 3rd District Commander Bob Vogt made the presentation.
