AOC & AFCEA Sponsored Dinner, May 8, 2006

Welcome to the Association of Old Crows (AOC) Empire Chapter

The Association of Old Crows (AOC) is an organization that advocates the advancement of electronic defense development, knowledge, and techniques. Its membership which mixes government, military, university and industrial concerns serves on many important boards and committees trying to help Congress and the Department of Defense create policy that will provide more defense for the dollar using the technologies of Electronic Warfare (EW). Professionalization is a concern of the AOC, which offers courses sponsored at the Chapter level to assist members to become current in various fields.

Local chapters are the real strength of the organization. Their vigorousness and ideas flow to the international headquarters of the AOC. Over the years there have been 114 chapters started all over the world. Some of these are now inactive. Our chapter is the Empire Club which covers central New York State in the US. Because our club covers such a large geographical area, we have tried t o hold at least three meetings a year with good technical and social content. We frequently sponsor a three-day Northeast Regional Symposium as well as a classified half-day technical symposium in conjunction with Air Force Research Laboratory Rome Research Site.

Like many clubs we give scholarships to college students and participate on national committees.
