Is there some sort of ALR national committee?
A. No. Riders have not authorized the formation of a national program, national officers or national dues. There has been concern that a national structure might hamper growth in local programs. But, given the expansion of ALR since its founding in 1993, the national commander has appointed two prominent Riders, Bill Kaledas of Michigan and Terry Woodburn of Illinois, to represent the interests of American Legion Riders to the Internal Affairs Commission.
