- The Military Officers
Association of America (MOAA) was founded in Los Angeles, CA
in 1929 with the view to counsel and render assistance to all
officers in matters related to their retired status.
Through the years, the association broadened its objectives to
work on behalf of the entire uniformed service community.
After a membership vote in September 2002, the association
changed its name from The Retired Officers Association (TROA) to
the Military Officers Association of America (MOAA), on January
1, 2003.
