Albert Cohen, Jwv National Commander 1991-1992. A practicing attorney from West Orange, New Jersey, Cohen served in the US Army during the second World War as a weather observer. He was elected on a platform of combatting anti-Semitism and racism, supporting American veterans and "eradicating the scourge of drugs among youth in our country." Along with his dedication to the Jewish War Veterans, which Cohen has demonstrated by holding many leadership positions, including Post, County and Department Commander, he was also a member of the JWV National Museum of American Jewish Military History.
