ELIGIBILITY DATES HAVE CHANGED
 

MEMBERSHIP ELIGIBILTY in the American Legion is based on honorable service with the U. S. Armed Forces between:

​

(December 7, 1941 - Today)* The Legion Act, A New Change of Service Dates

“Let Everyone Get Involved in Opportunities for National Service”

(April 6, 1917 -November 11, 1918) World War I
(December 7, 1941 - December 31, 1946) World War II
(June 25, 1950 - January 31, 1955) Korean War
(February 28, 1961 - May 7, 1975) Vietnam War
(August 24, 1982 - July 31,1984) Lebanon/Grenada
(December 20, 1989 - January 31, 1990) Operation Just Cause
(August 2, 1990 - Today)* Operation Desert Shield/Desert Storm

​

Eligibility dates remain open, all members of the U.S. Armed Forces are eligible to join The American Legion at this time, until the date of the end of hostilities as determined by the government of the United States.

​

Must have served at least one day of active military duty during one of the dates stated and have been honorably discharged or still serving honorably.

​

Note: President Trump signed Senate Bill 504, The Legion Act, “Let Everyone Get Involved in Opportunities for National Service” on July 30, 2019, at the White House. This is a victory for The American Legion. The American Legion’s eligibility criteria immediately changed from seven war eras to two: April 6, 1917, to Nov. 11, 1918, and Dec. 7, 1941 to the present time and a future ending date to be determined later by the federal government. The Legion Act also opens the door for approximately 6 million veterans to now access American Legion programs and benefits for which they previously had not been eligible.

For any questions please contact our membership chairman, or stop by at the Post.
