Post 386 in Plano, TX. I was the youngest guy in the room by about 15 years, but everyone was very cool and happy to see me.

I took my DD214 down, and it cost me $25 for a year. They are definitely our kind of people, too. All veterans, obviously, and right on board with the program.

Bottled beer is $1.50 and their well whiskey is Jim Beam for $2. Not bad.

The magazine has
some great articles
but since there are no
links to them I don't bother
bringing them up.

I'm also a member of the VFW.

Don't you have to be a veteran of a foreign war to join the VFW?

I have a VFW life membership.  Cheap drinks and nice people, but I'm usually the youngest person there.

My dad (WW II vet and VFW member) gave the the membership as a birthday gift after I got back from Desert Storm and qualified for membership.

I'm not sure how useful it is.  Most posts are hurting for business and have been forced to open the doors to the general public.

I'm the youngest in my Post too. Most of the guys there are 20-30 years older than I am (I'm only 23).

Can't beat the poker nights! Where else can you get beer for 75 cents and learn new four letter words every time you show up!

Semper Fi.

But the question was about the American Legion not the VFW.  Anybody can get int othe American Legion that was in the service, there are certain qualifications for VFWs.
