American Legion Auxiliary 282 La Mesa

Today I went to Post 282 La Mesa to see the damage that was done last night riots. The Legionnaires family came together today to give a helping hand on restor...ing the property of Post 282. I apologize for not wearing a mast caught up in the moment, I’m piss this happen to a Veterans facility. Everyone came together today to show unity between all Veterans organizations. The big surprise was to have the honor of meeting Sidney 101 yr-old WW II Vet and his family to stop by and see the devastation of property. they are on their way to Utah for visit, I’m truly blessed to meet this young man. Before I departed Old Glory was flying with spirit and hope!!! See more
