Dear AAAA Members,
103 years ago on July 9, the U.S. Army Warrant Officer Corps was established as part of the U.S. Army Mine Planter Service.
And 17 years ago on this same date in 1983, Army Warrant Officers were authorized the wear of Army Officer Branch insignia & branch colors as a uniform change, “branching” Aviation; that same message established the new Chief Warrant Officer Five rank insignia.
The Army Warrant Officers of all three Components have proven time and again they are the indispensable skilled technicians providing commanders with the expertise and leadership capabilities to fight the battle and win – anytime and anywhere!
All of us at AAAA thank you for everything you do for our Branch and our Army and salute you and your families for your continued service!
Above the Best,
MG Tim Crosby, U.S. Army, Retired
35th President of AAAA
