People give all sorts of reasons for joining professional associations. Whether your specific goal is to make professional contacts, build a reputation, foster the

exchange of ideas, promote the profession among the public, support the representation of the profession's interest before government, or just good fellowship and entertainment, the bottom line is, you get out what you put in. You may look at yourself as a loner, not a "joiner." That's fine, but also appreciate the fact that you are every bit as professional as any doctor, lawyer or engineer. Like them, you deserve the advantages a professional association provides. The Army Aviation Association of America supports individual as well as Aviation Branch goals and objectives. As a member, you can write articles for ARMY AVIATION MAGAZINE , the AAAA's official publication. Get involved with chapter activities and professional development programs. Take advantage of membership benefits. The information, experience and friendships you gain in AAAA will sustain you throughout your career. As the political environment changes and the winds of democracy blow strong around the world, the threat diminishes in some areas and increases in others. However, there can be no doubt that Army Aviation will play an even greater role in providing flexible, self-deployable, sustainable and ever more lethal capability in the future. As it has for over 50 years, AAAA remains committed to supporting you, the members of AAAA, through keeping you informed, representing your concerns, and developing new programs to meet your needs.

Today, our Air Assault Chapter President, Colonel "Hawk" Ruth (Ret.) and Chapter Vice Presidents Gary Adams and Jack Smith visited long-time friend and fellow 2-17th Cavalryman Chief Warrant Officer Four John Van Bruggen.

"What a Blessing to have served with and been trained to fly an AH-1 by this legend in the middle… Many people will remember John VanBruggen! He was the epitome of a Senior Warrant Officer and Squadron SIP for 2-17 while I served! It was also a great blessing for all of us to get to visit him! Henry C. Ruth III, Gary Adams and I had a wonderful visit with our old friend and mentor!!!" - Jack Smith

OSM Induction of 1SG James Howard will occur on July 31st at 11:30 a.m. in the front lobby of the 101st CAB Headquarters Building. We hope you can attend.

Rarely do we announce an upcoming induction because we don't know if it's a surprise. In this case, it's not.
