Not understanding why renewing my membership is worthwhile. Obviously, there is no meetings as the individual Posts doors are closed. My previous "Post" was considered Lansing, MI where I am over 100 miles away from. I know there are closer Posts but again none are open. Best I can do is renew so that I can reach out to other Legionaires on the American Legion Amateur Radio Club as I am an Amateur Radio Operator. (And, I also have to pay for joining the ALARC as well). Where is of help to me?
I think its all about perspective. How many of us have been deployed or on a ship for months with out seeing land, no beer, no family. At least I'm at home with my wife, I can grill out and have plenty of beer.
I've been a social distance person most of my life. So this is nothing. I joined the American Legion last fall and already they are hitting me up to renew my membership. $50 is a bit much.
