  H.R. No. 902
 
 
 
R E S O L U T I O N
 
         WHEREAS, On April 13, 2019, members of the American Legion in
  the Angleton area are gathering to commemorate two special
  milestones: the 100th anniversary of the national organization and
  the 90th anniversary of the Charles Dixon Post No. 241; and
         WHEREAS, Founded on March 15, 1919, the American Legion is
  the nation's largest wartime veterans service organization; it is
  dedicated to supporting and paying tribute to those who have taken
  up arms to defend our freedoms, and it carries out a range of
  programs to assist former and current members of the military and
  their families; in addition, the group places a strong emphasis on
  mentoring youth, strengthening communities, and advocating
  patriotism and honor; its current membership exceeds more than two
  million people, and they have collectively contributed over 3.7
  million hours of volunteer service and provided assistance on more
  than 181,000 VA benefits claims and cases; and
         WHEREAS, One of over 12,000 local posts worldwide, the
  American Legion Charles Dixon Post No. 241 was named after Charley
  Sam Dixon, who served in the American Expeditionary Forces during
  World War I; the post received its charter on July 8, 1929, and was
  made up of 48 members at its inception; for the better part of a
  century, it has worked diligently to further the goals and advance
  the mission of its parent organization; today, the post is as vital
  as ever, having nearly doubled its membership over the past 10
  years, and its emphasis on addressing the needs of local residents
  has made a difference in hundreds of lives; and
         WHEREAS, The members of the Charles Dixon Post No. 241 have
  distinguished themselves by contributing to the exceptional legacy
  that the American Legion has built over the past 100 years, and they
  are performing a noble service through their ongoing efforts to
  benefit their community and all those who have valiantly and
  faithfully served our nation in the armed forces; now, therefore,
  be it
         RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 86th Texas
  Legislature hereby commemorate the 100th anniversary of the
  American Legion and the 90th anniversary of the American Legion
  Charles Dixon Post No. 241 in Angleton and extend to the post's
  members sincere best wishes for continued success with their
  important work; and, be it further
         RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
  prepared for the post as an expression of high regard by the Texas
  House of Representatives.
