10. SAVE OUR LEGION
Thank you for your interest in sponsoring and supporting the Annual Veterans Day Salute presented by American Legion San
Dieguito Post 416.
The San Dieguito American Legion was established in 1931 by World War I Veterans as a sanctuary and meeting place to help
them deal with the horrors of that war. The San Dieguito (little San Diego) area spans from Carmel Valley through most of
Carlsbad and inland to Black Mountain. For the last 83 years this facility has served veterans, family members and the community
as a whole through charitable donations and volunteer efforts.
Today the building and attached structures are in dire need of repair; in fact, replacement is the best alternative. Hence, the
Legion formed a “Save Our Legion” committee. This committee is charged with raising the funds to rebuild the Legion into a state
of the art meeting/community center to allow the Legion to continue the legacy of serving Veterans and their families as well as
active duty personnel in the area.
The proceeds from this year’s inaugural event will benefit the Save Our Legion Campaign and the rebuilding of our post to enable
us to continue and even improve support for our American Heroes! Please note: plans and drawings are available upon request.
We greatly appreciate your review of the attached presentation for ways that you can sponsor this event, in turn providing
support to this campaign.
Thank you in advance for your sponsorship and support.
For God and Country

12. VETERANS DAY SALUTE CLOSING
It has been often said that without our veterans, Americans would be speaking Russian, German or, perhaps,
Japanese. Regardless of which view of alternative history you take, we do know that without our veterans
America would not be America.
And as we look at the Middle East today, we know that there is a large, dangerous and committed group of
fanatics that wants us dead. And while ISIS, al Qaeda and other terrorists may lack the conventional weapons
of Nazi Germany or Imperial Japan, they are every bit as evil in their intentions.
Those who defend us from our enemies must be supported. Whether their service was in Baghdad or Beirut,
we need to serve veterans as well as they serve us – even when the guns have temporarily stopped firing.
Veterans don't ask for much. They do not want to be in a "special class," but benefits are a mere drop in the
bucket compared to the financial and human cost of war. And while not all veterans see war, all who served in
the military have expressed a willingness to fight if called to.
Historians have said that Dwight Eisenhower was prouder of being a soldier than he was of being the
president. And while relatively few veterans ever reach the rank of general, pride in ones' military service is a
bond shared by nearly all who have served.
Veterans have given us freedom, security and the greatest nation on earth. It is impossible to put a price on
that. We must remember them. We must appreciate them. We can do better. We must do better.
God bless you all for being here, God bless our veterans and God bless America
