My Fellow Members of The
American Legion Family,
I am so thankful to see that
we are doing well this year and I am proud of the work that you all are doing
for this great organization. The Christmas season is upon us and it is a time
to celebrate with friends and family. It is also a time to be thankful for all
of the blessings that we have received and celebrate the birth of our Lord.
Our most heartfelt and
sincere thanks to our Nation’s servicemen & women and our Nation’s
Veterans. It is because of their sacrifice and the sacrifices of their families
that keep our Nation free and safe. Many of those who have been serving in Iraq
are coming home hopefully in time for Christmas, but if not, they will be
very soon and I know that many holiday wishes are coming true. Many have
made the ultimate sacrifice and will not be coming home ever again, so I ask
that you pray a special prayer for them and keep their families in your
thoughts and prayers this Holiday Season.
In the spirit of the season, my wife Anita and
my daughters Jessica and Jasmine wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New
Year.
Jim Roberts
National Commander
Sons of The American Legion
