Where veterans gather: Legion, VFW and AMVETS posts in Sussex, town by town

Veterans Day is Wednesday. Here are the veterans posts in Sussex County that we could find on the organizations' own pages: 11 American Legion posts, five VFW posts and one AMVETS post. We've listed them by town, west to east.

This list holds what those pages show, and nothing more. We give a street address only where the page gives one plainly. Where it doesn't, we give the town and ask you to check with the post. We left out phone numbers. The pages don't say which county a post is in, so we placed each town ourselves.

What we left out

We left out posts in Kent County towns. We also left out VFW Post 6483 in Milford, because the VFW's list doesn't say which side of the county line it sits on.

We didn't find a Sussex County chapter of the Disabled American Veterans, the Marine Corps League or Vietnam Veterans of America on a page we could open. That doesn't mean there isn't one. It means we couldn't confirm it.
