NCOA Rogue Chapter

NCOA Rogue Chapter The Rogue Chapter formed around 1984 and has had a rich history of community service and organizational achievement.

The Non Commissioned Officers Association (NCOA) is a federally-chartered Military Service Organization (MSO) representing Enlisted Service Members in all branches of service. In the beginning as a small chapter, we were recognized almost annually as the “Best Small Chapter, Western Region.” Under the leadership of several different chapter chairpersons, Rogue Chapter was named “Best Small Chapter

in NCOA” at least six times. As NCOA changed, Rogue Chapter evolved into a Large Chapter and has won “Best Large Chapter NCOA” since 2017. With a core of dedicated members, Rogue Chapter took the lead in building Veteran’s Memorial Park adjacent to the Medford National Guard armory. We contribute funds and numerous volunteer hours to causes near and dear to our military and veteran community. To learn more about what we have done and more importantly what we are doing or plan to do in the future, please feel to email our chairman at [email protected]. Programs We Support

SOVB Memorial Wall
State Funeral for WWII Veterans

Can you walk 5K (3.2 miles)? Can you run that far? Do you have a dog that needs a daily walk?

The VeteRun addresses veteran su***de and veteran mental health. Just today I had to deal with someone in a very dark place and doing nothin or saying that is someone else's job or problem is not a valid answer. You may be the only one between life and death. That is what Veterun is all about. If you want to do something to help, register today!
