Sons of The American Legion |
Preamble to The Sons of The American Legion National Constitution Proud possessors of a priceless heritage, we male descendants of veterans of the Great Wars, associate ourselves together as "Sons of The American Legion" 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 true
spirit of Americanism; to preserve the memories of our former members and the associations
of our members and our forefathers 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 masses; to make right the master of might; to promote peace and good will on earth; to
safeguard and transmit to posterity the principles of justice, freedom and democracy; to
consecrate and sanctify our friendship by our devotion to mutual helpfulness; to adopt in
letter and spirit all of the great principles for which The American Legion stands; and to
assist in carrying on for God and Country. |
