The Boswell American Legion Post 476

I nearly missed this American Legion while driving through Boswell. They usually have a similar look with a flag that is very obvious outside. With this project on my mind while driving through these little towns though I am glad that I spotted this frontage. Part of the fun of finding all of these kinds of buildings is seeing how different each of them are. They share a common goal, but they get there a different way.

American Legion Week

What better week to take a look at some American Legion buildings than this week? The legion was founded with patriotism in mind, and you don’t see as much patriotism as you do this week. Beyond being a way to help promote patriotism the legion also is an advocate for veterans. They were a key part in the G.I. Bill getting passed.
