Who We Are

The Mission of the Association is to:

Preserve and honor the memory, the history, and the esprit de corps of those who served in the 1st and 2nd Battalions of the 317th Regiment, the 1st Battalion, 320th Regiment and the 1st Brigade, 80th Division formerly located at the Lieber USAR Center and Fort Belvoir, Virginia
Maintain a database of those associated Veterans and assist members in locating others with whom they served.
Maintain a private website solely for the use of members to provide them with news and features and a way to reconnect and stay in touch with other Association members.
Sponsor periodic reunions and other gatherings that nourish and perpetuate the camaraderie, spirit, and friendships of members beyond their military service to our country.
