Author Description

Excerpt from The American Legion Monthly, Vol. 3: November, 1927 The assembled delegates are asked to rise and stand at as close an approximation to attention as possible after the interval of several years. The gentleman coming up the aisle, the cause of all this ceremony and breath - bating, is James W. Burrows. Mr. Burrows is a reserve lieutenant colonel of infantry and a member of William Clinton Storey Post of Freeport, New York, but the tribute which the multitude is paying him has nothing to do with his military or Legion status.
