What Is The FRA?

FRA Branch 290 is a local affiliated branch of the Fleet Reserve Association. The FRA is a congressional chartered non-profit organization that has represented the interests of the Sea Services community before the U. S. Congress since 1924. Our membership is comprised of current and former enlisted members of the U. S. Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard.

In addition to its legislative advocacy efforts, FRA assists its members with career problems by maintaining close liaison with the Departments of Defense, Veterans Affairs, Homeland Security, and other government agencies. FRA continues to educate members of Congress, many of whom have little or no military experience, on the challenges facing career personnel.

 

Branch 290

FRA Branch 290 was chartered over 46 years ago and exists to provide its members with a place to assemble and participate in matters of the Sea Services Community. This allows our members to keep informed and to continue to locally serve our Nation and support our Veterans. We accomplish this by coordinating and maintaining a liaison between the Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard personnel in the Mayport area and the general public. We also provide our members with facilities for fraternal, social, charitable and recreational activities.
