American Legion Post 500 Accepts New Member

The following news article appeared in the Los Angeles Times on November 11, 1945:

Newest member of American Legion Post 500 here today is Tramp, who received his discharge from the Army recently after serving sixteen months overseas in the K-9 Corps.

He belongs to Morton E. Taylor, Troth St. and Jurupa Ave., a veteran of World War I. Comdr. Carl Allen received special permission  from the Legion's department and national headquarters to accept Tramp as a member.

Doesn't that just want to make you say "Ahhh!"  Here is to Tramp, his owner, and all those veterans at our own Mira Loma Post back in 1945 who brought Tramp in as a member.
