SAMS is a Scottish-American Veterans Society of the U.S. Armed Forces and British Commonwealth Services also open to U.S. Active Duty, Reserve, and National Guard Armed Forces personnel, and senior college ROTC members.

We will be honored to have you along side of us as we keep alive and celebrate, both the present and our honored past.
