The Air Defense Artillery Association was founded in 1975 at Fort Bliss, Texas. The Air Defense Artillery became a separate branch of the Army in 1968. By 1975 it was clear that there was a need for an Association that had as its mission support for Air Defense Artillery soldiers, their families, and their units. In addition, the branch heritage that dated back to the artillery, coast artillery, and the anti-aircraft artillery units that had defended America since 1775 needed to be preserved.
The year 1975, the 200th birthday of the Army and the Artillery, was seen as the right time to organize this association. The association would be built on the foundations of the Artillery Association and the Coast Artillery Association.
By 1989, the ADA Association had a strong membership and was supporting ADA soldiers and units worldwide. The Association made it possible for soldiers to be awarded the Order of Saint Barbara, and their spouses the Molly Pitcher Medal.
In 2009, the ADA branch and the association moved to Ft. Sill, OK. However, our mission remains the same, and every day we do our best to support our ADA soldiers, families, units, and their history.
