Sons of Legion
Preamble
Proud possessors of a priceless heritage, we male descendants of veterans of the Great Wars, associate ourselves together as “Sons of The American Legion” for the following purposes:
To uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States of America; to maintain law and order; to foster and perpetuate a true spirit of Americanism; to preserve the memories of our former members and the associations of our members and our forefathers in the Great Wars; to inculcate a sense of individual obligation to the community, state and nation; to combat the autocracy of both the classes and masses; to make right the master of might; to promote peace and good will on earth; to safeguard and transmit to posterity the principles of justice, freedom and democracy; to consecrate and sanctify our friendship by our devotion to mutual helpfulness; to adopt in letter and spirit all of the great principles for which The American Legion stands; and to assist in carrying on for God and Country.
All male descendants, adopted sons and stepsons of members of The American Legion, and such male descendants of veterans who dies in service during World War 1, World War 11, and Korean War, the Vietnam War, Lebanon, Grenada, Panama, and the Persian Gulf War, or who died subsequent to their honorable discharge from such service, shall be eligible for membership in the Sons of The American Legion. As of January 2018 we have 61 members.
Our objective is to help the American Legion Legionnaires and Veterans of our community. We have several fundraisers during the year and help support our local schools.
