Newly commissioned or appointed officers or warrant officers will still be entitled to a complimentary membership. Simply ensure that you select the newly commissioned option in the membership process. Complimentary membership eligibility begins on the date you are commissioned or appointed and ends on 31 December of the following year.
Any officer scheduled to retire or separate in the current year should consider selecting the Annual Retire Membership or the Retired Lifetime Membership.
At the previous NGAUS national conference, a vote to update the national membership dues was passed. The national and state dues are shown below.
The success and strength of our association depend on our membership. Remember, each and every member counts! Our dues deadline for NGAUS is 30 June of this year. Thank you for your support!
