Joining the American
Legion.
If you are on active duty today, anywhere in the world, or have served during any eligible war eras (see the Application Form below), you are a veteran and you're eligible to become a Legionnaire!
You've probably heard of The American Legion. We're veterans just like you, nearly 3 million strong, who care about America, veterans and their families and our nation's youth. The Legion is a powerful voice in Washington dedicated to preserving the rights we've all earned — and were promised — by service to our nation in uniform.
The American Legion is America's largest veterans organization. We're fighting for higher active duty pay, future retired COLAs, better military housing, assistance for veterans in finding jobs, and a superior health care system proposed by the Legion called the GI Bill of Health which you — and your family — can continue to use after separation or retirement.
We work to not only to protect and improve benefits for veterans, but more importantly, we are working to make our communities better through some of our many programs including Children and Youth and Americanism.
The American Legion also offers many benefits besides the satisfaction of serving your community.
We invite you to join us now. The American Legion is always there for you and your family. Just like you, we're "Still Serving America!"
