Send them a copy of your discharge document and they'll tell you how much their membership is. The Legion might be the most expensive of the vet groups. The VFW is the most popular because it is the ONLY vet organizatoin with the word "war" in it's title. And people covet the title of "war vet."
The VFW is America's oldest vet group founded originally by Spanish-American War veterans in 1899. The AL was started by WWI vets in 1919. The AMVETs were started by WWII vets in 1944. The VVA was started by Viet Vets in about 1979.
But the VVA was "sort of" special...they were founded because no other US vet group would allow them in...without alot of red tape. Consequently, their motto is "We'll never turn our back on another veteran" (like what happened to them).
Unless you are French, you can only join the French Foreign Legion.

To join the Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) or the American Legion as a veteran of the Korean War, you would need to meet their membership criteria. Typically, you must have served honorably during a period of foreign conflict and have received a campaign medal or served in a specific area during a designated time frame. You can contact your local VFW or American Legion post for more information and to initiate the membership process.
