The U.S. Naval Cryptologic Veterans Association
Welcome Aboard
We are a unique organization of active, retired, and honorably discharged U.S. Navy Cryptologists, past and present, whose primary focus is the preservation of our rich cryptologic history.
Our earliest members were trained in the 1930s to intercept and decode Japanese Katakana transmissions. Their contributions to real-time combat and ultimate Allied victory in the Pacific war at sea and ashore are legendary.
Our current members are Navy Cryptologists who continue the tradition of dedication, skill, and professionalism set by our pioneers.
Join Us!
Any officer or enlisted member of the U.S. Navy, U.S. Marine Corps, U.S. Army, U.S. Air Force, U.S. Space Force, and U.S. Coast Guard serving on active duty in a primary cryptologic field – such as Cryptologic Technician (Maintenance, Interpretive, Collection, Networks/Cyber Warfare, Technical) – are eligible for one-year FREE membership in the U.S. Naval Cryptologic Veterans Association.
Reservists, National/Air Guard personnel, and Retired and Separated (former service) members are welcome to join us as are Surviving Spouses of former cryptologists. Others can apply for membership as an Associate Member, pending review and approval by the Membership Secretary.
