FORCE RECON ASSOCIATION

Our Mission is to develop, foster, and perpetuate the ideals, camaraderie, and professional standards of current and former members of Reconnaissance Communities and their antecedent and successor units of the Regular and Reserve establishments of the

United States Marine Corps.

Standing By Our Own

One of our Brothers from 1st Force is navigating the difficult burden of laying his father to rest. In true Recon spirit, we stand ready to support him, discreetly and with honor.

If you're in a position to give, your donation, no matter the amount, will go directly to the family through the Force Recon Foundation. All contributions are tax-deductible, and the identity of our Brother will remain fully confidential, in keeping with our longstanding values of respect and brotherhood.

Thank you for answering the call, and for always standing by those who’ve served.

Our Legacy

The Force Recon Association (FRA) began in December 1979 and was officially established as a legal entity on September 21, 1989, in the state of California.

 

BUILT BY RECON MARINES FOR RECON MARINES

Our mission is clear: to develop, foster, and maintain the ideals, camaraderie, and professional standards of both current and former members of the

United States Marine Reconnaissance community.​​

As the oldest existing veterans organization dedicated solely to the service of Reconnaissance Marines and Sailors, the FRA stands as a brotherhood committed to honoring the past, supporting the present, and shaping the

future of our elite community.
