The American Legion turns 103 today! Chartered by Congress in 1919, this patriotic veterans service organization is “built on a promise from men and women who swore with their lives to defend and protect the United States through military service.”
Today, the American Legion has nearly 2 million members and 12,000+ posts in communities throughout the country.
