Membership Eligibility
If you are on active duty today, anywhere in the

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.
We invite you to join us now. Membership brings an impressive array of
benefits. The American Legion is always there for you and your family. -
in Virginia we have 214 posts, and over 59,000 members. Just like
you, we're "Still Serving America!"
