Our Mission

Unite and inspire the nation's active and reserve component military personnel, the veterans, the citizens, and the Congress to ensure that our military institutions are efficient and effective and our forces hardened and capable to defend and protect the values and culture of this Nation against all enemies, foreign and domestic, with reasonable and acceptable cost.

Our Intent

• Become the most informed and most vocal voice for all Military Services of the Nation.
• Create an organization that contributes to frank discussion of military affairs and the political process impacting national defense.
• Ensure our forces are manned, equipped, and adequately supported by our Nation to successfully fight in any environment.
• Inform and involve the American public to ensure that armed conflict is only waged for the Constitutional purpose and a clearly defined national interest.
• Listen to the concerns of the troops "on the ground" to provide feedback to their leadership and our elected officials with constructive proposals for resolution.
• Encourage young Americans to serve their Nation for a higher purpose, either in the active forces or following the citizen-soldier concept in our Guard and Reserve.
• Break down the wall that has developed between our people and our forces. Encourage open/unimpeded information exchange.
• Uphold, sustain, and protect the values and culture that made this country great and unite us as Americans - language, adherence to the Constitution, responsibility, and self-discipline.
• Unite and involve veterans of all generations - they know what it means to serve and to sacrifice. Publish their experiences for the benefit of future generations of warriors.
• Interest readers and members in literature, films, and events concerning our national defense, military heritage and cultural values.
