American Legion Membership Eligibility of Personnel in the Newly Created United States Space Force Date: May 20, 2020

To: American Legion Leadership From: Kevin J. Bartlett and Daniel S. Wheeler Re: American Legion Membership Eligibility of Personnel in the Newly Created United States Space Force Date: May 20, 2020 American Legion Membership Eligibility of Personnel in the Newly Created United States Space Force. Per Title 36 of the US Code, Chapter 217, Section 21703, An individual is eligible for membership in the corporation [The American Legion] only if the individual— (1) has served in the Armed Forces of— (A) the United States at any time during— (i) the period from April 6, 1917, through November 11, 1918; or (ii) any time after December 7, 1941; or (B) a government associated with the United States during a period or time referred to in subclause (A) of this clause and was a citizen of the United States when the individual entered that service; and (2) was honorably discharged or separated from that service or continues to serve honorably during or after that period or time. The United States Space Force was created by the National Defense Authorization Act of 2020, signed by the President on December 20, 2019. It became Public Law No: 116-92, ‘‘§9081. The United States Space Force ‘‘(a) ESTABLISHMENT.—There is established a United States Space Force as an armed force within the Department of the Air Force…. (c) SPACE FORCE AS AN ARMED FORCE.—Section 101(a)(4) of title 10, United States Code, is amended by inserting ‘‘Space Force,’’ after ‘‘Marine Corps,’’. Thus, as amended, Section 101(a)(4) of title 10, United States Code reads: (4) The term “armed forces” means the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps, Space Force, and Coast Guard. Therefore, as title 10 of the United States Code now includes Space Force as an “Armed Force” and our federally chartered membership criteria uses the same wording [“has served in the Armed Forces….any time after December 7, 1941”] there are no necessary acts required to extend membership to all who have served or continue to serve in the United States Space Force. .

FOX Sets Premiere Date for Final Season of Legion
FOX sets premiere date for final season of Legion The third and final season of Legion will have a same-day-as-US debut in Hong Kong and South East Asia. HONG KONG, MAY 31, 2019 – Asia’s premier entertainment channel, FOX, today, announces the return of Legion for its third and final season. The mind-bending drama from Noah Hawley is premiering on Tuesday, June 25 at 9.50 PM (Hong Kong), 8.50 PM (Jakarta/Vietnam) – a same-day-as-US debut, which viewers in Asia can catch on FOX and video-streaming service FOX+. Based on the Marvel Comics by Chris Claremont and Bill Sienkiewicz, Legion follows the story of “David Haller” (Dan Stevens), a man who believed himself to be schizophrenic only to discover that he is the most powerful mutant the world has ever seen. From childhood, David shuffled from one psychiatric institution to the next until, in his early 30s, he met and fell in love with a beautiful and troubled fellow patient named “Syd Barrett” (Rachel Keller). After Syd and David shared a startling encounter, he was forced to confront the shocking reality that the voices he hears and the visions he sees are actually real. With the help of Syd and a team of specialists who also possess unique and extraordinary gifts – “Ptonomy Wallace” (Jeremie Harris), “Kerry Loudermilk” (Amber Midthunder) and “Cary Loudermilk” (Bill Irwin) – David unlocked a deeply suppressed truth: he had been haunted his entire life by a malicious parasite of unimaginable power. Known as “The Shadow King,” this malevolent creature appeared in the form of David’s friend “Lenny Busker” (Aubrey Plaza), but was actually an ancient being named “Amahl Farouk” (Navid Negahban).

Age of Apocalypse Event Book
Earth-295 is a reality that was accidentally created by Legion, son of X-Men leader Professor Charles Xavier and Israeli diplomat Gabrielle Haller. Legion believed that the only way to bring peace to humans and mutants was to kill Magneto before he could incite the anti-mutant movement. He traveled back to a time when Xavier and Magneto both lived in Israel and were working at a hospital, taking the X-Men Storm, Iceman, Bishop, and Psylocke back with him. Legion tried to stab Magneto with a psi-blade, but Xavier shielded Magneto and was killed instead. By killing his own father, Legion made his own existence impossible. The M'Kraan Crystal resolved the paradox by restructuring reality. All the X-Men vanished from that reality, and a new reality came into existence. Bishop, already displaced in time, remained; but the chronal backlash fractured his mind. He wandered Earth for the next twenty years. The Rise of Apocalypse The clash of so many powerful mutants awoke the Celestially-empowered mutant Apocalypse years before he woke in the timeline of Earth-616. Apocalypse believed in natural selection, the "survival of the fittest". By his reasoning, super- powered beings deserved to run the world. When he saw such beings in action twenty years early, he set off to an early start on his campaign for world domination. Without heroes such as the Fantastic Four, Spider-Man, and the Avengers, there was no one to stop him. The only opposition was Magneto, who took up Xavier's cause and brought together the X-Men.

The Neurotic Superhero
THE NEUROTIC SUPERHERO From Comic Book to Catharsis There’s a historical pattern around the popularity of the superhero—he or she is most needed during dark times in the real world. In Captain America: The First Avenger, when Steve Rogers/Captain America (Chris Evans) visits the US troops to boost morale, it’s more than mere fiction; it’s art imitating life. Sales of comic books actually increased during the Second World War. Service men and women needed such stories of bravery and triumph as an inspiration, to which they could also escape. Comics were portable, easy to share and inexpensive. The Golden Age of Comics began during the Great Depression, and it’s perhaps no coincidence that the game-changing movie for our current generation of superheroes, Christopher Nolan’s The Dark Knight, was released in 2008—the same year that saw the worst global economic crisis since the 1930s. We needed a hero; 2008 also happened to be the year that President Obama was first elected into office. The Dark Knight paved the way for the superhero shows and movies we’re still watching, a decade later. Of course, it wasn’t the first edgy, darker iteration of !1 the comic book superhero—Sam Raimi’s Spider-Man series and Tim Burton’s version of Batman had started to push the boundaries, together with the X-Men franchise, which focuses on the persecution and genocide of minority “mutant” superheroes. But it is Nolan’s Bruce Wayne/Batman (Christian Bale) who crosses that line: he’s not just heroic but deeply flawed.

LEGION, Highly-Anticipated Drama Series, Premieres on FOX Available Exclusively on Bein
Press Release LEGION, highly-anticipated drama series, premieres on FOX available exclusively on beIN Premiere on Thursday, 9th Feb, 10pm UAE; Trailer now online Dubai/ Doha, February 06, 2017 – Legion, the highly-anticipated new drama series from Noah Hawley, will premiere on FOX available exclusive on beIN on Thursday, 9th February 2017. The strong FOX- beIN partnership is also reflected in the various other series aired on FOX, a channel exclusive with beIN. These include The Walking Dead (Season 7) that returns after the mid-season break on Monday, 13th February at 10 pm UAE and Outcast S2 that will be on air shortly. LEGION is based on the Marvel Comics by Chris Claremont and Bill Sienkiewicz and is the story of David Haller (played by Dan Stevens), a troubled young man who may be more than human. Diagnosed as schizophrenic as a child, David has been in and out of psychiatric hospitals for years. Now in his early 30s and institutionalized once again, David loses himself in the rhythm of the structured regimen of life in the hospital: breakfast, lunch, dinner, therapy, medications, sleep. David spends the rest of his time in companionable silence alongside his chatterbox friend Lenny (played by Aubrey Plaza), a fellow patient whose medical condition has done nothing to quell her boundless optimism that her luck is about to change. The pleasant numbness of David’s routine is completely upended with the arrival of a beautiful and troubled new patient named Syd (played by Rachel Keller). Inexplicably drawn to one another, David and Syd share a startling encounter, after which David must confront the shocking possibility that the voices he hears and the visions he sees may actually be real.
