Associate Membership is open to Department of Defense civilians, civil service retirees, and any individual who subscribes to the philosophy of a strong national defense with special concern for the men and women who serve, and who have served, the nation in the uniformed services.

Sustaining Membership is open to business entities, professional firms, corporations, local governments, civic groups, veterans organizations and societies that support the aims, the objectives, and the purposes of AMS.

AMS’s greatest mission is to improve the lives of those who serve and their families, which is achieved largely through the tireless advocacy efforts taking place in our nation’s capital. AMS’s experts in Washington are there to support legislation that benefits the military community and are equally vigilant when fighting to stop legislation that threatens our livelihood. The larger our numbers, the greater our voice.

We invite you to join with us in our urgent mission to protect the benefits which you were promised and for which you worked so hard to earn. Join with us today and help us fight for you!
