Post #131 Sons of the American Legion is actively

The Sons donated a 35 ft. flagpole that was erected
at the Sahuarita High School Baseball field. On Pearl
Harbor Day, December 7, members of Boy Scout Troop

dedicated American Flag. During the holidays, the
generosity of the Legion Family – Legionnaires, Auxiliary,
Sons and Riders and even Santa - adopted four local
families and helped them celebrate by providing gifts.
The Sons also sponsor community-based ALLECA, an
organization that supports young people interested
in pursuing careers in law enforcement or the
military. The Sons are involved with JTED – Joint

• Closing doors on your way out slows the spread of
fire, giving you more time to safely escape.
• In some cases, smoke or fire may prevent you from
exiting your home or apartment building. In these
cases, discuss “sealing yourself in for safety” as
part of your home fire escape plan. Close all doors
between you and the fire and use duct tape or tow-
els to seal the door cracks and cover air vents to
keep smoke from coming in. If possible, open your
windows at the top and bottom so fresh air can get
in. Call the fire department to report your exact
location. Wave a flashlight or light-colored cloth at
the window to let the fire department know where
you are located.
