National Commander James LaCoursiere

     James A. LaCoursiere, Jr. (La coursey air)  was elected national commander of the nation’s largest veterans organization on August 29, 2024, in New Orleans, during The American Legion’s 105th  national convention.

     An Air Force veteran, LaCoursiere has been a longtime field representative for The American Legion Department of Connecticut’s Soldiers, Sailors, and Marines Fund, which assists veterans and their families.

     LaCoursiere has held many leadership positions at The American Legion post, department (state) and national levels. He is a member of American Legion Post 91 in Moosup, Conn. He has also served as a national vice commander, Connecticut state commander, and chairman of the organization’s national legislative commission. 

     LaCoursiere is married to his wife, Lisa, and has two children (Patrick and Meghan), and three stepchildren (Jason, Kaylene and the late Johnathan).

     Born to a military family in Honolulu, LaCoursiere attended Montville High School where he played junior varsity football, varsity football and varsity track.

     As national commander, LaCoursiere is strongly committed to raising awareness for The American Legion’s “Be the One” efforts to prevent veteran suicide.

National Commander's Pin Incentive Program

      American Legion National Commander James A. LaCoursiere Jr. will award his national commander “Be the One” dog tag coin to any Legionnaire who obtains three new members into The American Legion. 

      Only one coin will be awarded per individual. Upon receipt, national membership staff will confirm the names in the national database and mail the coin directly to the person who earned it.
