The Sargent Legion is still a viable organization, although our monthly
meetings and smokers have become sparse. Most of our members are World
War II veterans, a few Korean and a few Vietnam veterans. We have 58
paid up members, 34 of whom live in the Sargent area, Of these 34
veterans, 26 are World War II and Korean veterans, putting their ages
in the 80’s.
The Legion Post sponsors Boy’s State and Junior Law Cadet
programs. They help at military funerals, Veteran’s Day programs, and
flying the flags at the cemetery on Memorial Day. They also help with
the color guards marching in parades in the surrounding area towns. The
Legion Post 104 Commander is Jack Steinbaugh. |
