The American Legion Preamble.

FOR GOD AND COUNTRY WE ASSOCIATE OURSELVES TOGETHER FOR THE FOLLOWING PURPOSES:

To uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States of America; to maintain law and order; to foster and perpetuate a one hundred percent Americanism; to preserve the memories and incidents of our associations in the Great Wars; to inculcate a sense of individual obligation to the community, state and nation; to combat the autocracy of both the classes and the masses; to make right the master of might; to promote peace and goodwill on earth; to safeguard and transmit to posterity the principles of justice, freedom and democracy; to consecrate and sanctify our comradeship by our devotion to mutual helpfulness.

Commanders Welcome Message: 
I would like to take this moment to thank each and every Legionnaire for this great opportunity to serve you for the coming year. I realize that there lies pitfalls and I will do everything in my power to avoid them as much as possible. I look forward to working with Auxiliary President Carolyn Hunt and her officers, as well as S.A.L. Commander Lenny Free and his officers. I truly believe this will be a year of accomplishments in membership. We finished 2008-2009 on a high note, and I feel we can improve in 2009-2010. If there is anyone who needs help with membership, we will put a team together and come out for you.Feel free to contact me by e-mail at Wallyworld117@verizon.net or by phone at (H) 973-779-6043 or (cell) 201-220-5073.Let our prayers be with our servicemen and women who are serving through out the world. God Bless you and God Bless America
