I may be wrong but I think the American Legion will try to help any veteran, member or not.

It seems that since he never "joined" some of the veteran's organizations, he is "ineligible" for their assistance in this regard.

Curt KA2SLC, a former active member of this group, is now a Silent Key. His body remains unclaimed by family. I have been told he is a U.S. veteran, does anyone know of a veteran's groups that might assist in getting a veteran a decent burial?
