Why do veterans pay twice as much as others to belong to the American legion?
Of all the US veteran organizations (VFW-founded in 1899 by Spanish-American War veterans/American Legion-founded in 1919 by WWI veterans/American Veterans-founded in 1944 by WWII veterans/Vietnam Veterans of America-founded in 1978 by Vietnam War veterans) the Legion appears to be the most expensive to join. Possibly because it traditionally has had the most high profiled members...such as US Presidents. The VFW is by far the most popular for Hollywood & the common man, because it is the only veteran's group with the word "WAR" in it's title. And nearly all veterans want to be associated with the term, "war veteran."
