The Army Warrant Officer is a self–aware and adaptive technical expert, combat leader, trainer, and advisor.
Through progressive levels of expertise in assignments, training, and education, the Warrant Officer administers, manages, maintains, operates, and
integrates Army systems and equipment across the full spectrum of Army operations. Warrant Officers are innovative integrators of emerging
technologies, dynamic teachers, confident warfighters, and developers of specialized teams of soldiers. They support a wide range of Army
missions throughout their career. Warrant officers in the Army are accessed with specific levels of technical ability. They refine their
technical expertise and develop their leadership and management skills through tiered progressive assignment and education.
The United States Army Warrant Officer Association (USAWOA) is a professional organizational
formed to represent all army warrant officers. The national organization was incorporated as a non-profit association in Virginia
on 7 November 1974. The association consists of local chapters worldwide. These chapters provide social and professional opportunities
for its members and act as a focal point for warrant officers at the local level to disseminate and pass on to USAWOA officials the
professional concerns of their members.
The Fort Hood Silver chapter provides a forum for professionalism, representation and recognition
for warrant officers assigned to, and retired in, the Fort Hood military community. The chapter meets every 3rd Thursday at
11:30 a.m. on post at the Sportsmen's Center Grill, Rod and Gun Loop, Bldg 1937, 53rd Street and North Avenue, Fort Hood, TX. The
current president, CW2 Brooke D. Finkenbinder, invites all warrants, active duty and retired, to come and contribute to the success of the local
chapter. For more information call 254-698-3906. |
