Established in March of 1964, American Legion Post 227, Tustin, has been supporting veterans in Tustin and throughout Orange County for more than 40 years.

On a national level, the role of the American Legion is to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States of America; to maintain law and order; to foster and perpetuate a one hundred percent Americanism; to preserve the memories and incidents of our associations in the great wars; to inculcate a sense of individual obligation to the community, state and nation; to combat the autocracy of both the classes and the masses; to make right the master of might; to promote peace and goodwill on earth; to safeguard and transmit to posterity the principles of justice, freedom and democracy; to consecrate and sanctify our comradeship by our devotion to mutual helpfulness.

On a local level, the role of Post 227 is to sponsor and support veterans, their families, and surrounding communities in order to promote the awareness of the role veterans, both past and present, play in securing the freedoms and liberties that sustain this great country. This is done by communication, fund raising, and the sponsorship of programs and events that directly impact our members, veterans, and the community at large.
