New! Reduced Life Membership Enrollment
for Active Duty, Drilling Reservists (Officer and Enlisted)
and Civilian Public Affairs Specialists

The Navy's postwar public affairs program was built on a nucleus of 40 Naval Reserve officers appointed as public information specialists in the Regular Navy shortly after World War II. The program also included hundreds of Naval Reserve officers and enlisted personnel who had served in public information billets during the war, most of whom had returned to inactive duty by 1950. Since those early years, this body of regular and reserve officers, journalists, photographers, photojournalists and civilians has expanded into a substantial community of professionals telling the Navy's story.

The U.S. Navy Public Affairs Alumni Association was established in 1994 to honor and celebrate this rich heritage and to keep alive the friendships we have made during an important part of our lives. What most of us remember primarily about our tours of duty is the people with whom we served. USNPAAA enables its members to stay in touch and occasionally to get together. Many of our members are still on active duty; you don't have to be retired to join. The Association publishes a bi-monthly newsletter and an annual membership directory.

For the past several years we have staged reunions about every 18 months throughout the U.S. — great fun, good networking and catching up with one another. Learn more about USNPAAA; browse through the current and past issues of our newsletter Sightings. Life Membership for Active Duty and Drilling Reservists (Officer and Enlisted) and Civilian Public Affairs Specialists employed in the Navy public affairs community is now only $50.00 — a one-time lifetime payment.
