Lovely bit of history again! I was interested to see that the US started its own Legion too , as here in Britiain the British Legion did the same function, and was also was the bunch that made the poppy on Armistice Day a big thing plus - backed very much by Earl Haig - sought to make sure all ex service personnel could get a job, no matter if they were fully able or not. I also recall reading that in the 1920s that many relatives of those lost in the war would go to Flanders and France to see the cemetery where their loved one was laid to rest, or more sadly, the cenotpahs to those who could not be identified. Nice to see something positive Ian from such a horrid history - thank you as always.
