The Non Commissioned Officers Association (NCOA) is pleased to announce its 2025 Annual Conference and Vanguard Awards Dinner, scheduled for July 15-18, 2025, at the Sheraton Norfolk Waterside Hotel in Norfolk, Virginia.
The conference will feature the Senior Enlisted Panel, where top leaders from each branch of the Armed Forces will discuss the current state of their services and answer questions from attendees. Guest speakers from various Military and Veteran organizations will also cover topics that are vital to the Military community.
One of the highlights of the event is the Vanguard Awards Dinner, where one service member from each branch will be honored for acts of heroism. The Awards Luncheon will recognize top-performing NCOA Regional Chapters of the Year. During the Business Meetings, the NCOA and its International Auxiliary will set the course for the association’s future goals.
The event will also include Exhibit Tables from sponsors, providing attendees the chance to learn about services that support Military members and Veterans.
Joseph Terry, Executive Director of NCOA, stated, “The Annual Conference is a great opportunity to come together, hear from Military leaders, and recognize the important work our Service Members and Chapters do. It’s a chance to strengthen our commitment to advocating for the Military and Veteran community.”
