3/3 Marine · **Went to my 1st American Legion meeting -** 09-11-2004, 07:23 AM

I joined up for the American Legion a few months back and went to my first meeting last night. It was pretty cool for being a meeting. First they brought the colors up and said a prayer, then the Legion pledge, and went into the meeting. After the meeting it was free food and beer for the members. I was grteat talking to the old guys about different shit.

For those that don't know, the American Legion is a group in the U.S. for veterans who served in the military during WAR SPECIFIC times only. They have predefined dates that you must've served in. If you didn't you can't join. The great thing is our post has a golf course and I get like 50% off.
