Be a Leader. Make a Difference.

The Society of American Military Engineers brings together the uniformed services, government, academia, and industry across architecture, engineering, construction, environmental, and facility management to support our national security. Founded in 1920, SAME advances three goals: Drive Partnerships, Deliver Solutions, and Develop People.

The Savannah Post, chartered in 1946, is where those goals come to life in coastal Georgia and the Lowcountry. With about 400 individual members and 65 member organizations, we are the Post for the A/E/C community serving the Savannah District and our region’s installations.
