I was completely shocked that he would take the time to call me and reassure me that he was taking ALL my mail back to the post office so I could pick it up the next day. Sure enough I called him to just tell him I was at the post office to pick up my mail and he was more than happy to bring it down to my car, since it was a good amount of mail. What a gentleman, he was so nice and informative on what I should do to get my mail. I just want him to be acknowledged because I must be honest I had no faith in the postal service workers I had some bad experiences, but Mr. Reed changed that with his kindness. Again THANK YOU for your help and kindness especially at this time (Covid-19). We need more Postal people just like YOU! Sincerly, Mrs. Bez

I also had a serious incident on the escalator. It caught my skirt, and despite multiple attempts to stop it, the escalator continued running. I returned the next day to report the incident and was told the person responsible was not there. After being given the runaround, no one ever followed up or compensated me for the damage to my dress, nail, watch, and other belongings. The elevators are also raggedy and often seem poorly maintained, which does not inspire confidence in the overall safety and upkeep of the facility. It's disappointing to experience such poor customer service, especially since the post office operates with very little competition. I do have another post office that I prefer, but this location is open later, which is sometimes more convenient. The facility often looks deserted, although there has been security in the parking lot since it reopened. Another frustration is that the location sometimes closes earlier than posted hours or seems to close whenever it wants. Overall, every visit feels like an inconvenience.

As the weeks have added together into years it has walked away with my most prized experience year after year. Coming here has taught me that I cannot receive but by giving. My years of trying to gain for myself by taking always availed less and less until I was left with little more than too much stuff and too many things. Nothing more. I bring an AA meeting directly to offenders who sit in each other's rot all day with no hope and no inspiration to break their cycles of relapse and failure. I bring hope to them and I can see it come back to me in their smiles and expressions of gratitude. There is nothing like it in the world! I read a lot about the intolerance and ignorance of the guards but my extended experience has been the polar opposite. I get out of my relationships with them what I put into them. Nothing more and nothing less. They are exposed to extreme toxic behavior that comes down from the top and up from the bottom every single day. I might end up acting out my own hostilities if I had to experience the poisonous environment that they vocationally live in. I challenge any normal human to tell me they wouldn't! But when I leave my AA experience and am able to walk out the front door a free man, I experience the sensation of flight for a brief moment. A total free fall escape from the dungeons and back into my life which, for these few moments, seems so blessed and blissful by comparison to what I have just experienced.

Fellow inmate denied medical attention for symptoms of a concussion after being dropped on her head by arresting officers. Ignored and later mocked for screaming and crying for help for her. Denied necessary medications and then released feeling very ill and barely able to see straight. These guards could not care less who you are or why you are in there. They would literally not care if you drop dead. They are sick people who get off on others' suffering. Shame on them all.

This location is extremely poorly managed, and my experiences here have been consistently negative. I have never encountered such a lack of accountability or professionalism. Legitimate complaints are met not with solutions, but with what feels like retaliation--such as packages being mysteriously "misdelivered" or marked delivered when they never arrive. In one instance, a package was thrown over a fence into a vacant lot. In another, a package was marked as delivered but never reached my mailbox, and I have video proof no attempt was made. I have also had packages marked as "attempted delivery, customer requested hold at post office," which is completely false--I have never requested this. My mail and packages are sometimes held at the post office simply because the route carrier does not want to deliver them. Interestingly, substitute carriers consistently deliver my mail correctly and are professional and pleasant. The issues occur only with the regular route carrier. Where I come from, feedback and complaints are addressed proactively and used to correct problems. Here, I have been repeatedly gaslit, told that I am wrong, discouraged from complaining, and ultimately blamed for issues that are clearly not of my making. The manager never resolves anything and deflects responsibility instead of taking corrective action. This is a clear case of mismanagement. Customers should not be treated this way, and ongoing service failures should not be ignored or blamed on the person reporting them. I am now taking my paper trail and evidence to OIG since nothing was resolved.

The American Legion was created by the grandson of President Theodore Roosevelt & General Black Jack Pershing, chartered by Congress in 1919, to bring together veteran groups left after the Civil War. The respective Union and Confederate veteran organizations were brought together as the American Legion as a step towards healing sectional differences and politics that were still held by war veterans and their families.

The Post was named in honor of two Lithuanian-American Pilots, Steponas "Stephen" Darius and Stasys "Stanley" Girenas, whose ill-fated flight in the early days of Transatlantic aviation, garnered considerable attention for its contribution to the history of aviation as well as for its tragic ending. On July 15, 1933, the pair left New York and flew non-stop across the Atlantic Ocean, covering a distance of 3,984 miles (6,411 kilometers) in their single-engine, modified Pacemaker plane Lituanica (Latin for Lithuania). The duration of their flight, a total of 37 hours and 11 minutes (107.1 mph) ranked fourth in the aviation record books of the day; the distance travelled was second to record holders Russel Boardman and John Polando. The flight is regarded as one of the most precise in air navigation history, a remarkable feat considering Lituanica lacked sophisticated navigation equipment and encountered severe weather en route. Lituanica entered the record books for carrying the first Transatlantic airmail delivery, a bag of letters postmarked for Lithuania from the Brooklyn Post Office. The flyers were believed to be shot down by German Nazi artillery, who said the flyers had engine problems and crashed.Despite having enough fuel to complete the journey and the proven skill of the pilots, Lituanica crashed in a forest near the town of Soldin, northeast of Berlin, just 650 km short of Kaunas, Lithuania, its final destination. (The crash site was located in pre-WWII Germany, but the area is considered part of present-day Poland.) An investigation by the Lithuanian government attributed the crash to adverse weather conditions and pilot and/or instrument error. Rumors that the plane had been shot down, on suspicion of being a spy plane or for flying too close to a German concentration camp, were never substantiated. An autopsy completed in Lithuania revealed no evidence that the pilots had sustained bullet wounds. Whether or not the plane had been fired upon could never be ascertained because not all pieces of the aircraft were returned to the Lithuanian government. The Lithuanian-bound mail, nevertheless, was recovered and ultimately delivered. The two heroes are buried in the Aukštieji Stančiai military cemetery in Kaunas, Lithuania. The wreckage of Lituanica is on display at Kaunas's Vytautas the Great War Museum. The post was a Chicago landmark with an actual World War II artillery piece next to the flag pole in the front yard of the Post grounds. The membership was further bolstered by the huge number of returning World War II veterans, replacing the World War I Veterans who had gone to heaven, and the Post was for many years the largest American Legion Posts in the State of Illinois and one of the largest American Legion posts in the USA. This post had a very proud heritage with a stellar Landmark facility on Western Avenue, which was used as a site for a Hollywood movie. The brick and flagstone- front facility had banquet rooms and a huge lower level facility, called the Rathskellar with another banquet room, a kitchen, a huge bar and offices.

It becomes my preferred option because it is located near an area that I frequent; plus, hours open on the weekend work best for me, which is late afternoon. Located along a busy Cermak Rd, the parking space is easily accessible to visiting customers, but you must choose the right time when backing out your vehicle to exit amongst incoming traffic. Now if you struggle finding parking along Cermak Rd, there is also 2-hr parking on Clarence Ave which sits off to the side of the location. An adorable, classy looking building is this post office not only on the outside, but inside as well. During my visit, there was a small line of customers inside which resulted in a short wait, but nothing excruciating. As someone who visits post office locations regularly whether it be for Poshmark, eBay, or postcard shipments the clerk presented a professional demeanor during our brief encounter. I was on my way in minutes after being presented with mailing stamps for my postcards, a receipt, and a short briefing about the survey listed on the bottom of the receipt which allows you to share your experience. I am terrible at doing the surveys on the receipts pertaining to my visits at post offices, but rest assured I always share a review based on my experiences whether it be yelp or Google.
