I would suggest contacting your local American Legion Post. Maybe they can set something up where you could visit different posts along your route. Where are you starting from?

Great idea! Matter of fact...so great an idea...I'm already one step ahead of you. The National American Legion is behind this also (endorsing not supporting...what's the difference? an endorsement is cheerleading and spreading the word, but no money :) )

The trip has already started. It started in Washington D.C. on October 31st and I've met and spent time with alot of great Legionnairs along the way down here to Georgia. The next leg is from here in Georgia to Oregon. (You can see the tentative route at www.couchsurfing.com/people/janelson) Also visit the website, www.JourneyAmerica.org

Thanks for the input and advice!
