Post 342 American Legion Veterans Day Program


Freeport American Legion Veterans Day Program
November 11, 2014 @ 10:00 AM


This Veterans Day the Freeport American Legion will honor all Veterans with a program that will include Singing performances from Freeport's Atkinson School Chorus led by Stephanie Arnell.

There will also be a Video Presentation for Veterans produced for the American Legion for this event. 

Major Donald R. Moore, USMC (Ret.)
Commander of the Freeport High School JROTC will be our guest speaker.

Veterans Day is the time we celebrate with the Veterans among us the freedoms we take for granted day by day, among these freedoms are;.......


the right to Assemble, the right to petition your government, the freedom of the press, the right to have possessions and home to keep them in, and you have the right to possess and bear arms.  

Veterans Day is the day we also observe those no longer with us, brothers who slogged through the ranks with us or sisters who had their aircraft shot out of combatant skies or were killed providing medical attention in overgrown forested regions or frozen lands.

When you Pledge Allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America you are not worshiping a country. You keep faith with every farm boy from Iowa, every city kid from Brooklyn, every girl from North Carolina, every Old Man who's head turned grey serving his nation and every woman who sent a son off to war.  You pledge allegiance to every American soul who lifted a hand or fired a weapon to save someone else on this planet from fear, torture and tyranny.  

Celebrate with the William Clinton Story Post No. 342 of the American Legion as we recognize in an observance of Americanism the Veterans of the United States of America.
