When is the American Legion going to update our uniforms
By adding A gold Hashmark on the sleeves for every 5 years of membership our uniform coat.
Don’t our American Legion Members allowed to be proud when they wear their uniform coat/ jacket showing how long they have been member.
Also we need to show like the US Army a new uniform jacket
Why are we not Listening to our younger member we need to update our uniforms and ourselves
