of The American Legion
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.
