Keep our troops and their families in mind this time of year, and join MOAA’s efforts to improve their quality of life.
As MOAA's Vice President of Government Relations, Col. Dan Merry, USAF (Ret), is responsible for leading a team of nine to ensure compensation and benefits, to include health care, adequately support our all-volunteer force through recruiting and retention. He ensures service-earned benefits for retirees, their families, and survivors are not eroded to fund other programs. He also identifies and nurtures relationships on the Hill, with DoD and the VA, and with The Military Coalition and other organizations outside the coalition. He advises the Government Relations and Health Care Board Committees.
