      The Kitsap Chapter of the Military Officers Association of America is located in Kitsap County, Washington.  The Chapter provides an opportunity to renew old acquaintances and friendships, stay up to date on local and national issues through  guest speakers at Chapter monthly social functions and an opportunity for sustained military camaraderie.
     The Chapter solicits members from Kitsap County, Jefferson County and Northern Mason County.  All active duty, retired, and former officers of all military and uniformed services, National Guard and Reserves are eligible for membership.
      The Chapter regularly meets the fourth Friday of the month except in July and November when there is no meeting.  The other exceptions are Armed Forces day in May, the annual picnic in August and the joint holiday luncheon in December with the Retired Officers Wives Association.

The Chapter's Military History/Heritage project is an attempt to document the military histories of all U.S. servicemen and women who have resided in the Kitsap County, Washington Area.  Click here for more information on the project.
