Germantown American Legion Post 1 Actually, the number "ONE" went to the Arthur Kroepfel Post, which along with five others, merged in 1924 and called themselves Milwaukee Post #1.

A Short History of Post # 1 Wisconsin American Legion
Germantown, Wisconsin

We are proud that our Post is numbered "ONE" because it was the first American Legion Post in Wisconsin to receive a charter after The American Legion was organized in Paris in 1919. For years, it was informally known as the "Mother" Post and the "Officials" Post, and its membership included a large number of Milwaukee City & County officials and employees. The Post had patriotic, service and social programs, sponsored bands and drum & bugle corps, and participated in County, District and State golf & bowling tournaments. The Post varied in membership from about 300 to more than 1,000 shortly after World War II. Post #1 occupied a number of meeting places since 1919, including memorial buildings at 31st & Wisconsin and 34th & Capitol in Milwaukee, and its present location at Pilgrim & Freistadt in Germantown. When the opportunity arrived to merge with Germantown Post #321, the membership approved a resolution on the merger on December 8th, 1994. A new memorial building was dedicated on Memorial Day, 1997.
