WHO WE ARE We are an association comprised of Marine Corps officers, and officers from other military services, that share a common background. We are a group of men and women who initially enlisted and served with distinction in the Marine Corps and Marine Corps Reserve enlisted ranks for many years.
These selected Marines were subsequently noted and identified by their seniors as individuals possessing a number of attributes required by the Marine Corps for long-term success.
Among them were technical expertise, military knowledge and skills, leadership abilities, high mental and moral character, innovative and motivated performance of duty and a true dedication to the mission of the United States Marine Corps.
The Marine Corps Mustang Association was conceptualized by retired Captain Robert Richter and was formed and incorporated in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania on 10 November 1985 as a not-for-profit Veterans Service Organization currently operating under an IRS designation of Chapter 501(c)19.
Now in its 34th year of existence, the association continues to dedicate itself to the advocacy of professional development and encouragement for younger enlisted Marines and newly commissioned or appointed warrant officers, demonstrating a pathway for advancement and offering mentoring, advice and camaraderie over their military service and civilian careers.
This is to formally announce the commencement of the 2022 Marine Corps Mustang Association Officer and Director Elections. The MCMA continually needs new leaders with the motivation and dedication to reinforce our survival as the term of current Officers and Directors comes to a close. This is your opportunity to take a more active role within the MCMA by being a part of the leadership team responsible for continued growth and sustainment. All positions are for a 3-year term, are not full-time positions, and only require your time and energy as available. All routine business is conducted by email, quarterly conference calls, and the annual membership meeting.
Additionally, there are "turnover" jackets and email accounts in place to help the transition of new officers and board members. Election results and swearing-in of new officers will be held at this year’s annual Muster/reunion in Washington, D.C., from August 4, 2022 - to August 7, 2022. We will hold elections for President and two (2) Directors. Position powers and responsibilities are outlined in the Bylaws which can be found in the member's area of our website at www.MarineCorpsMustang.org. The process for submitting your application for an officer or director position is outlined as follows:
• A candidate must be a current/paid member in good standing
• A candidate must be cognizant of the position description and willing to discharge the duties to which elected
• Candidates must submit a 125 word (or less) statement to the position they seek including information on the candidate’s willingness to serve accompanied by a recent photo. Email the statement and photo to BusinessMngr@MarineCorpsMustang.org no later than June 1, 2022.
