The American Legion was chartered by Congress in 1919 as a patriotic, mutual-help, war-time veterans organization. A community-service organization which now numbers nearly 3 million members -- men and women -- in nearly 15,000 American Legion Posts worldwide. The American Legion, 5th District, proudly serves the veterans, their families and the community in the Dallas County, Texas area.
If you are on active duty today, serving honorably, anywhere in the world, or have served honorably during any eligible war eras, become a member of The American Legion! We're veterans just like you, nearly 3 million strong, who care about America, veterans and their families and our nation's youth. To join, visit a Post near you or go to www.txlegion.org for an online application and to verify eligibility.
