It says on the page that all spouses can join. The only people that can’t join are non-veteran sons because there is a separate thing for son’s of the American Legion. In reality it doesn’t matter if you’re all just hanging out together anyway. It only really matters if you want to be part of the internal politics, but honestly, it’s probably worse than being in the military.
Literally anyone can join the discord, no affiliation required.
If I win it I’m probably going to use it for future local events. They’re currently forming committees on top of committees on top of committees to talk about the various video game related things they want to do. One of those things is hosting game nights or tournaments monthly at each post.
They say the mission is to attract younger vets, but I think that older vets would also enjoy gaming, they just don’t realize it. Sure, they might not want to play an fps, but I’ll bet I can get them going on an old arcade machine or playing geoguesser. I’d also like to see if I can get ahold of a flight sim rig and get some retired pilots in there.

Rules:
1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy “anti-woke” energy, you probably shouldn’t be posting it here.
3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.
Oh believe me I’m well aware. But 99% of those auxilairies are LADYS auxiliaries. I don’t qualify.

I’ll join up. Thank you.
They’re also doing a PS5 pro giveaway if you want to sign up for that.

That should go to someone who has fewer means than I do. But thank you for the tip.
Besides I’m an XBox fanboy!

I’m 61. My wife’s been in 24 years. We game together!
You’d be on the younger side of the vets at most legion activities.
That’s funny.
Thank you! It means a lot.
