The objects of the Veterans of Foreign Wars are fraternal, patriotic, historical and educational;

To preserve and strengthen comradeship among its members;

To assist worthy comrades;

To perpetuate the memory and history of our dead, and to assist their widows and orphans;

To maintain true allegiance to the Government of the United States of America, and fidelity to its Constitution and laws;

To foster true patriotism; to maintain and extend the institutions of American freedom;

And to preserve and defend the United States from all her enemies, whomsoever.
