American Legion Meetings On March 9
F.W. Grigg Post 68 American Legion will hold its monthly meeting on Thursday, March 9, 7:00 p.m., at the Merchantville Community Center, 212 Somerset Ave.
The American Legion was chartered and incorporated by Congress in 1919 as a patriotic veteran’s organization devoted to mutual helpfulness. With the recent passage of the “Legion Act”, eligibility for membership in the American Legon has been expanded to include those who served honorably during the periods April 6, 1917, to Nov. 11, 1918, and Dec. 7, 1941 to a time later determined by the federal government.
The Post Auxiliary Unit also meets at 7:00 p.m. on the same night and location. Any spouse, whether male or female, of a veteran who is an American Legion member, or the daughter, mother, grandmother, sister, or granddaughter of a veteran are welcome to join.
