Between World War I and World War II, the Naval Reserve Officers Association (NROA) successfully fought for a strong Reserve Force to augment the United States Navy. At the end of World War II, Secretary of the Navy James Forrestal sponsored the Reserve Officers of the Naval Service (RONS), which was made up of Navy, Marine Corps and Coast Guard Reserve officers. In 1946, RONS combined with the NROA to form RONS-NROA.
The Association of the United States Navy strives to advance the interests of the U.S. Navy and to protect the rights and benefits of its Sailors. AUSN members include active and reserve; officer, enlisted and civilian; serving, veteran and retired; and their families.
Today, AUSN is the leading voice for America’s Sailors, a strong supporter of American naval power, a leading provider of professional career development and the largest advocacy association for the Navy and current and former Sailors.

Veterans and seniors in the United States might be done with their careers but many are far from done in terms of financial freedom. Fortunately, whether you want to take a more passive or active role in saving and investing, there are several options always open to you. A lot of the options we lay out here are more suited for service disabled veterans, but most seniors can benefit from them as well. One of the best ways to do this is to arm yourself with a college degree, to guarantee more options for you when you pivot to a new career path after retirement or leaving the service. As service disabled veteran, always try to take advantage of all the benefits our country provides to you as a way of thanking you for your service. The GI bill states that all veterans are eligible for 36 months of full cost in-state tuition. This amount is capped for service-disabled veterans who choose to enroll in private colleges. If you already have a college degree or feel that someone else can benefit more from free tuition, remember that education benefits are transferrable to family members. Note that if you plan on taking up this offer, you will generally be asked to serve an additional four years. It is best to ask for this benefit as soon as you can during your military career.
