The American Legion is the largest veterans service organization with over 2.3 million members. Glen Sharbono would like to encourage all veterans to join their local American Legion Post, as their membership is a powerful voice on Capital Hill to protect their rights as veterans. Remember “the larger our membership, the bigger our voice.”
