OBJECTIVES OF THE USFA VETERANS ASSOCIATION

As Defined in our Constitution:

"The objectives of the Association are to promote comradeship among its members, to strengthen patriotism to the United States of America, to preserve and share memories of the occupation years, to maintain and strengthen friendship between the people of the Republic of Austria and the people of the United States of America."

To further exemplify the goals of the Association as I have observed throughout the years it is to bring together people who have a common experience, that being our duty in Austria. This does not mean we will join this Association to continue this experience. We are different people now than we were at that time, and our experiences and lives today are much different than they were. We will not be caught up in living only in the past, but share our lives as they are today.

To me as the founder of this Association I would like to consider it as the USFA Veterans Family. This is what it has become, a family. We share in each others joys, health problems, and sorrows. If this is the kind of Association you would like to become part of, then join our family. If you are just looking to relive the past, or finding a particular individual you served with, then this may not be the Association you may want to join. Whatever your decision may it be the one that is best for you.

Throughout time, while at peace and in war,
our service men and women have proudly contributed
to the preservation of freedom.
