The National Infantry Association® (NIA) is a fraternal organization composed of Infantrymen and supporters of the U.S. Army Infantry.  There are NIA Chapters at many Army posts, and at other locations around the world.  The missions of the National Infantry Association are to support the Chief of Infantry and the entire U.S. Army Infantry Branch (the only organization with this primary function); to share, through the “Infantry Bugler” magazine, the camaraderie of like minded soldiers and citizens who believe in maintaining the Infantry spirit; to recognize, through our Order of St. Maurice awards program, outstanding Infantrymen and Infantry supporters; and to preserve the Infantry heritage through support of the National Infantry Museum and Soldier Center at Patriot Park in Columbus, Georgia.  You can learn more about the NIA or become a member by visiting its web site at www.infantryassn.com.
