The vast majority of the younger generation are not members. Honestly, don’t see the point or what they offer us.
The AL halls I’ve been to have been chock full of bitter old dudes who chain smoke and drink way too much.
I’m a member of AL and VFW because I do think they lobby on behalf of vets, but I don’t regularly attend. I don’t enjoy the pomp and circumstances of regular meetings, I don’t like the way old timers at some of them operate off of rank. I’m not in anymore, I don’t outrank you, you’re a Vietnam vet!
Some of them are definitely more vibrant than others, but not the ones near me.
I am not a member because I see myself too young for it. Besides I don't see the point in joining at the moment. But who knows I might have a change of mind one day.
