Youth

The American Legion has a proud tradition of supporting our nation’s youth. The organization was founded on this principle in 1919, when Children & Youth was declared one of the Legion’s four pillars.

Honor Guard

"Thru rain or sleet or heat or snow, the American Legion Honor Guard will go. To perform their duties on command in honor of all those who defended this land. Their gesture of good deeds for the family bereaved will bring comfort and closure to what they have achieved."
