Life-Changing Story
Incredible Transformation
This is a short video that could change your life. This disabled vet was told he would never walk unassisted again after too many paratrooper drops in the Gulf War took their toll on his back and knees. He gained a lot of weight and gave up on life. This video is one of the most incredible and inspirational videos and will help you to know that no matter what, you can do anything if you want it badly enough! It’s short and powerful, take a moment to lift your day!

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Commander welcomes home returning vets
INDIANAPOLIS (Feb. 13, 2013) -- American Legion National Commander James E. Koutz responded to President Obama's State of the Union Address Tuesday with a word of welcome to 34,000 troops the president said would be coming home from Afghanistan this year.
"American Legion service officers stand ready to support our men and women of the U.S. Armed Forces and help them understand their VA benefits. American Legion-sponsored job fairs and business workshops await their return, offering opportunities to convert military experience into successful careers. American Legion posts and individual members are available for those who come home wondering where to turn for camaraderie and support. That is what we do. It is who we are."
