I know many of your members who were in during conflicts/wars, but never left the US. kudos to those who saw combat. Sorry...just venting. Semper Fi!


Those of which you speak, who never served, are not full members. They can only belong to the Sons of the American Legion or SAL for short. As a child I belonged to the SAL, IMHO having adults in the SAL is absurd, it was akin to the Boy Scouts. I’m a full member of the AL, have been since 1972.
