Our Legion Families

About us

Post 129 was organized in October 1919 and was located in downtown Toms River for 80 years.
Veterans of all wars and conflicts are welcome.

We are named after George P. Vanderveer who was the first Ocean County veteran to die of injuries incurred in WWI at the age of 18;
he succumbed to injuries, shell shock and the effects of gas.
George was born in 1899 and in 1999 we observed the anniversary of his 100th birthday.
