Subject: American Legion coming up on 100 years

I'm starting to see more and more about the 100th anniversary of the American Legion coming up.
Co-incidentally a friend happen to started a project a number of years ago to further research the men honored by his home town who died in WWI.
A link to it is below.

So you and the American Legion share a birthday then - wow, what a coincidence. (you could pass for 95 in a dimly lit bar though....)
