The Legion's Support of Education is Legendary

The American Legion believes that education is the first requisite of good citizenship and the cornerstone upon which rests our nation's future. Many youth award programs of the Legion at the Post and State level offer U.S. Savings Bonds as contest prizes to help students defer the cost of a higher education.
