“Proud Possessors of a Priceless Heritage”
Detachment Commander Sean Brandon
Our aim as members of the Sons is to help to incorporate the “Legion Family” as a unified force; to set new records in membership growth; and to help increase contribution totals of cash, hours, and mileage for the many projects we support and fund. Your participation is instrumental and a must for the success of these objectives. The formula for growth is really very simple “Just Ask Somebody,” If we each brought just one person into the family this year, we would have doubled our size. We can do it.
