Mission
The mission of our chapter is to help and support legislation designed to further a strong national defense; promote and foster better relationships between officers of all services and communities in which they live; and offer opportunities to renew old friendships and make new friends through the chapter meetings and social activities.

About Our Chapter
The Orange Empire Military Officers' Club was chartered in 1959. The chapter consisted of 68 members residing in San Bernardino and Riverside counties. As the membership grew, it provided the nucleus for chapters in Riverside, Palm Springs, Sun City, Hemet-San Jacinto, and the Antelope Valley. The chapter currently has 190 members including active duty, retired, and former officers of all services and their survivors. More information about the chapter activities and our meetings can be found in our monthly newsletter.
