The Wisconsin Historians Association (WHA) is a constituent part and subordinate to the American Legion, Department of Wisconsin, and the American Legion, a federal corporation organized by an act of congress. This organization.
We in the WHA celebrate the existence, purpose and activities of Historians!
In more formal, specific (and very serious) language, the WHA is a voluntary union of Department, District, County, Post, Forty and Eight, Twenty and Four, Echelon, American Legion Auxiliary, and Sons of the American Legion Historians, desiring to give and gain mutual aid in the collecting from year to year records and data of value and interest to the American Legion in the compilation during their respective terms of office, complete histories of the year’s activities, for the assistance of all historians in coordinating and unifying their work in accordance with national rules governing compilation of American Legion Histories. For the stimulation of interest in the preparation of all American Legion Histories at all levels, and the increase of appreciation of the importance and responsibility of the office of historian.
