Preamble to the Constitution of The American Legion

For God and Country

We associate ourselves together for the following purposes:

To uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States of
America; to maintain law and order;

To foster and perpetuate a one hundred percent Americanism;

To preserve the memories and incidents of our
associations in the great wars;

To inculcate a sense of individual obligation to the community, state and nation;

To combat the autocracy of both the classes and the masses;

To make right the master of might; to promote peace and
goodwill on earth;

To safeguard and transmit to posterity the principles of
justice, freedom and democracy;

To consecrate and sanctify our comradeship by our devotion
to mutual helpfulness.

"There is a new America every morning when we wake up. It is upon us whether we will it or not." Adlai Stevenson (1900-1965)US Senator
