Welcome to the Greater Dallas Chapter of the Military Officers Association of America. This unit was established in October 1967. Membership is open to any retired, active duty, former or reserve officer, including Warrant Officers, and widows of uniformed officers. We publish a monthly newsletter, The MOAA REPORTER, which gives information on membership, meetings and Auxiliary meetings, legislation, local initiatives and other information of interest.

We are active in our community through our Personal Affairs Programs, Junior ROTC, Service Project (Greet the Troops at DFW Airport), Scholarships and our Legislative activities.

Our programs are varied and interesting.  We encourage members to suggest future program ideas and to bring guests and prospective members.  We welcome non-members to attend a meeting - the camaraderie is terrific.   Rides can be arranged simply include in your RSVP.

For 2010, we have meetings scheduled for the following dates: February 23, April 24, June 22, August 24, October 26 and our Annual Holiday Gala  will be announced soon.  We plan on having our 3rd Annual Golf outing in September and participating in the Veteran's Day Parade.
