For more information or training contact Department Headquarters A "Reconnect" is a DOD initiative meant to "reconnect" our country with its military. A reconnect effort is any face-to-face communication between military installations and American Legion posts, districts/counties or departments to showcase their many programs and services. Departments that do not currently report their reconnect efforts are strongly encouraged to do so. A minimum of 100 points will be awarded for each reconnect effort until June 30. Additional points may be awarded for more complex efforts lasting multiple days, involving other entities and demonstrating additional programs or services. A maximum of 5,000 points may be awarded to each department in a single membership year. Reconnect efforts dated July I or later will be have those points applied towards the next year's awards points totals.
