I put it in the shredder....not because I dislike the American Legion. I believe there are people who are genuinely proud of their service and want to continue the tradition, but I'm not one of them. I didn't like military life and was happy to get out.
The Legion sponsors Boy's State which I think is a great educational experience for boys wanting to learn about leadership and I make an annual contribution to the Legion to support it. (Our son attended and enjoyed the experience) But standing up at a meeting and saluting......I gave that up 30 years ago....
