Veteran’s Creed

 

Several years ago, a number nof veteran serice organizations, include The American Legion developed the Veteran’s Creed. The creed is meant to inspire veterans to continue to serve and lead in their communities and our country, and to continue to make a difference in our world

Each element of the creed is rooted in shared military tenets, the mission of participating veterans and military service organizations, and in altruistic ethos of veterans themselves.

It is also meant to remind Americans that the principles and values veterans learned in the military – integrity, leadership, teamwork, selfless service – can greatly benefit our country
