Nice post! Thanks to you from a guy in Iraq! Been here once and Afghanistan twice and i know there are guys aout there that have been in far worse places. But from me Thank you! Go Navy, Beat Army!
my grandpa passed 6 months after my first deployment he was in the army for 32 yrs, i am spc michael whitney and iam 21 iam with 41 st infantry, 2nd battalion camp rilea and ive proudly served 2 tours and i serve my country not my goverment..i do it for all you ppl,and congress god bless the us of fucking A
im in jrotc at the moment and i've helped out american legion before and i will again this school year and joining the military and staying for 20 years(minimum)
Thank you Michael Peterson for this video, it is wonderful. I am a member of the American Legion Aux, American Legion Riders and a Patriot Guard Rider. I am been part of the Legion since I was in my teens when my parents were members. I am proud to be a member.
GREAT Video! Says all that it needs to say and show. My husband is an American Legion member and I am a member of the Auxiliary, Unit, and County. This really brings it home for all of us. Thank You So much. For God and Country! God Bless America!
I play this video at Legion meetings I attend and it is moving to see the effect that it has on WWII and Korean Vets. We made copies available to local schools and even have a version on our jule box, because it's not something that we do....buts it's who we are!
OK, I'm back....It's up to the servicemen and women of today to carry on our legacy. I urge you to join either the American Legion or the VFW. Remember "It's not just something that we do, it's who we are." For God and Country, Judy.
Hope my keyboard doesn't short out from the tears hitting it. I'm a former Marine (Vietnam era), and a Legionnaire. Being a member of the greatest and largest Veteran's organization in the world is indeed more than goint to a bar and drinking. It's taking care of veterans and their families, it's aiding the community, a continuing fight for our freedom. WWI vets are gone now, WWII and Korean war vets are going, Vietnam era vets are not far behind. I'm going to continue on another posting.
Thank you to our servicewomen and men. You have my full 100% support and there are a lot of us in Veterans Service Organizations (VSO)who appreciate your service and will do all in their power to help you. God bless you and keep you safe.

What a wonderful tribute to The American Legion and patriots all over America! Thank you...there ARE many patriots throughout this land, and we hope our military personnel know we're here for them! The American Legion members are also a true blessing to Run For The Wall as we travel across the country on motorcycles in May...we appreciate them!
This video is true to its word. You dont have to wear a Uniform to do your duty to this country, by being part of it and taking a stand for what is right and believing in the five freedoms laid down for us is doing your duty to this country. Thank you all American Patriots and Veterans and those still serving. God Bless
This video and music bring my patriotism to the forefront, lump in my throat, and tears. This brings the feelings I had when my uncles returned from Korea (4 served from that family). Officially uncles but felt like brothers. Michael and American Legion thank you.
