Camaraderie
A Place for Veterans
Some of what happens here is organised. Most of it is not. Someone stops in after work, someone else is already at the table, and an afternoon goes by. That is the part of the Legion no programme description covers, and it is the reason most members keep coming back.
- Meet veterans from every branch and era
- Share a meal and a drink
- Bring your family to Post events
- Get help with a VA claim
- Render honors for a fellow veteran
- Keep serving your community

Our town
More Than a Veterans Hall
A Legion post that only serves its own members is half a post. Ours is also a hall the town can book, a scholarship a local student can win, and the detail that shows up when a veteran is buried.

These pages are being written
Post 200 is collecting service histories from its members and their families — branch, years, where they served, and the stories worth keeping. Nothing here is filled in until a veteran or their family provides it.

Become Part of Post 200
If you served during an eligible period, you are eligible — whether you deployed or never left Texas. The application takes about five minutes, the Adjutant checks your eligibility, and after that you are a member. Not sure whether you qualify? Call and ask. We would rather answer the question than have you assume the answer is no.
Or call the Post at (979) 478-9913 and talk to a member first.
