What is the Warrior Legacy Foundation?

The Warrior Legacy Foundation is a 501(c)4 organization dedicated to promoting policies that will allow our military to successfully prosecute the wars we are fighting and all the missions it is given. It's leadership is comprised of veterans of all our conflicts from the Cold War through Iraq & Afghanistan. These warriors have seen the cost of weakness and the intrusion of politics into our strategy and tactics and vow to oppose that with well thought out and battle-tested methods.

It is organized as a double-edged sword with the Warrior Legacy Institute (WLI) pulling together the best minds among those who have walked on the ground where we fight, and Vets for Victory empowering the hundreds of thousands of our members to allow their voices to be heard in the halls of power.

WLI will gather combat commanders & NCOs, intelligence professionals, and foreign service officers to discuss their experiences in kinetic operations, COIN, nation-building, reconstruction, intelligence and information warfare and diplomacy. They will look at what has been tried, what worked and what didn't and craft policy proposals for specific situations around the world. We will send representatives to conflict zones to gather facts, interview principals and review the history and current state of affairs. They will return and present their findings to a roundtable that will add their experiences to the process. This group will produce policy papers providing specific, implementable solutions to address US policy for these areas. In addition multimedia presentations, Op-Eds and “talking head” appearances will support these proposals.

Vets for Victory will gather our grassroots membership into a cohesive entity to provide visibility and momentum for these proposals. Events and projects will be created to ensure that the public and our military and political leadership knows full well what the warrior class believes. We will provide and online network for our members and affiliated groups to publicize and discuss relevant issues and to organize around them. We will create a marketplace of ideas that gives a voice to all the concerned and patriotic folks who support the military and it's missions. Major events similar to Vets on the Hill and the National Heroes Tour will come out of this group.

The combination of a policy institute and a broad grassroots membership provides a powerful ability to affect the decisions that determine our likelihood of victory or defeat. The pro-mission, pro-troops voice is lacking in our current public discourse, this group will make certain that the warrior class is heard and heeded.
