The Army Warrant Officer is a self–aware and
adaptive technical expert, combat leader, trainer, and advisor. Through
progressive levels of expertise in assignments, training, and education, the
Warrant Officer administers, manages, maintains, operates, and integrates Army
systems and equipment across the full spectrum of Army operations. Warrant
Officers are innovative integrators of emerging technologies, dynamic teachers,
confident warfighters, and developers of specialized teams of soldiers. They
support a wide range of Army missions throughout their career. Warrant officers
in the Army are accessed with specific levels of technical ability. They refine
their technical expertise and develop their leadership and management skills
through tiered progressive assignment and education.
The United States Army Warrant Officer
Association (USAWOA) is a professional organizational formed to represent all
army warrant officers. The national organization was incorporated as a
non-profit association in Virginia on 7 November 1974. The association consists
of local chapters worldwide. These chapters provide social and professional
opportunities for its members and act as a focal point for warrant officers at
the local level to disseminate and pass on to USAWOA officials the professional
concerns of their members.
The Fort Hood Silver chapter provides a forum
for professionalism, representation and recognition for warrant officers
assigned to, and retired in, the Fort Hood military community. The chapter meets
every 3rd Thursday at 11:30 a.m. on post at the Sportsmen's Center
Grill, Rod and Gun Loop, Bldg 1937, 53rd Street and North Avenue, Fort Hood, TX.
The current president, CW4 Nicole Woodyard, invites all warrants, active duty
and retired, to come and contribute to the success of the local chapter. |
