The Oral History Project
Postcards and e-mails received by American Legion Members:
The information will be used for The Oral History Project. It is NOT a scam.
The company collects information to publish in a book and each member will have the opportunity to
purchase a book with their individual story included, along with photos.
It is a fundraiser for the Department of West Virginia.
The company has a one-time use of the mailing list, approved by National Headquarters.
Any questions, you may contact Department Headquarters.
Thank you,
