Americanism

Americanism is an unfailing love of country, loyalty to its institutions and ideals, eagerness to defend it against all enemies, individual allegiance to the U.S. flag and a desire to secure the blessings of liberty to us and our posterity. Our forefathers laid the foundation for a civilization that is the envy of the world. It has brought us greater spiritual and material wealth than any people have ever known. This is our heritage. The activities of The American Legion’s Americanism Commission acknowledge and preserve that heritage, recognizing inalienable rights of all.
