ELIGIBILITY DATES for MEMBERSHIP IN THE AMERICAN LEGION

     Thanks to the LEGION Act (Let Everyone Get Involved In Opportunities for National Service Act), Congress expanded the current eligibility period to cover Dec. 7, 1941, to the present, and includes the current war campaigns. Previously, there were seven declared war periods. Now there are two, the current war period dating back to World War II and another war era covering World War I. No other restrictions to American Legion membership changed.

Must have served at least one day of active military duty during one of the time period, above and honorably discharged or still serving honorably.

For any questions please contact our staff, any officer, or stop by our Post.
