In 1963, the Fort Campbell Chapter of The Retired Officers Association (TROA) was formed through the efforts of a small group of retired officers. At the first meeting, 25-30 retired officers attended, and at the second meeting an independent club was formed. The primary purpose was to establish fraternal relations among retired officers of all branches of the military to include the Geodetic Survey and the Public Health Services. The second purpose was to support actions which were in the best interest of the members. The membership grew and, on Oct. 1, 1971, the Fort Campbell Chapter joined the National Retired Officers Association. 

The Chapter currently meets on the third Saturday for lunch. The location varies since we try to meet in both Tennessee and Kentucky (we are members of both Councils of Chapters).

Our Executive Committee meeting is the Tuesday following our luncheon at 1200. Although we usually meet in the Montgomery County Library the location does change occasionally based on room availability at the library.
