Texas Legionnaire earns second Recruiter of the Year title

David Witucki joined The American Legion six years ago. Since then, he has recruited more than 960 new members into The American Legion to earn the Gold Brigade award four times and National Recruiter of the Year twice – in 2018 and now in 2020 for recruiting 155 new members.

“We’ve got to get people out there recruiting” for the organization to remain at the forefront of veteran issues and programs in its second century of service, said Witucki, a Paid Up For Life member of Post 490 in Houston. “I’m really aggressive in recruiting. I always tell (potential Legionnaires) that they are the future of the Legion.”
