If you meet the eligibility requirements for membership in the Sons of The American Legion, we'd love to have you join our ranks!
You can get an official S.A.L. Membership Application from us, just contact one of our S.A.L. Officers.
Thanks for stopping by today! We're confident you will enjoy becoming a member of The American Legion Family, this nation's largest organization dedicated to supporting veterans of the armed services of the United States of America!
Not everyone is eligible to become a member of the Sons of The American Legion. There are specific membership requirements.
To be eligible, you must be a male descendant (includes stepsons and adopted sons) of a member of The American Legion.
You would also be eligible to join the Sons of The American Legion if you are the male descendant (stepsons and adopted sons included) of a veteran who died in service during World War I, World War II, the Korean War, the Vietnam War, Lebanon, Grenada, Panama, or the Persian Gulf War (see specific time periods for service during these conflicts).
You would also be eligible to join the Sons of The American Legion if you are the male descendant (stepsons and adopted sons included) of a veteran who died subsequent to his or her honorable discharge from service in World War I, World War II, the Korean War, the Vietnam War, Lebanon, Grenada, Panama, or the Persian Gulf War (the same eligibility periods apply as above).
If you need help obtaining the records to prove your eligibility visit The National Personnel Records Center, Military Personnel Records. It is the repository of millions of military personnel, health, and medical records of discharged and deceased veterans of all services during the 20th century. Information from the records is made available upon written request (with signature and date) to the extent allowed by law.
$20.00
Perhaps the biggest benefit one receives as a member of the
Sons is the satisfaction of knowing you are helping others in your community and
elsewhere. However, there are also some tangible benefits available through
commercial vendors. Sons are eligible for almost all of the same discounts that
are available to members of The American Legion. Just click
here to look at a list of many consumer benefits available to members
of The Legion Family.
