Bluffton legion post observes 100th anniversary
Bluffton American Legion Post 382 celebrated its 100th anniversary on Aug. 10. It was on that date the the Bluffton post received its charter in 1920.
The American Legion was born on March 15, 1919, in Paris from a gathering of veterans who believed that a nation worth defending during war time, is a nation worth strengthening, honoring and serving for as long as a veteran lives.
The Bluffton legion's petition to join the American Legion dated, March 1, 1920, included signers who were all veterans of World War I.
