The long-awaited 'regimental association' for Force Managers is now getting organized! The United States Organizational Managers Association was recently certified by the Commonwealth of Virginia State Corporation Commission. The organization will be classified as a 501(c)3 (IRS tax exempt association). The organization will be representative of all military services and will be open to all DoD military and civilian personnel. Membership is voluntary. Membership applications are currently being accepted.

Take a look at USOMA's new website, www.usoma.org, as well as the brochure and membership application, and contact Ken Pittman
