Mission

We are an Association of Combat Veterans from all branches of the United States Armed Forces who ride motorcycles as a hobby. Our mission now is to support and defend those who have defended our country and our freedoms. Our membership is comprised of Full Members (verified combat service) and Supporter Members (non-combat military service, and have a sincere dedication to helping veterans). We have members from nearly all 50 states and living abroad. Many members continue to serve in our Armed Forces, with several serving in combat areas now. We sponsor and/or participate in many motorcycle-related charity events each year, and as a 501(C)3 non-profit organization, donate to various veteran care facilities and veteran charities.

Armed Forces Day Poker Run

Annual fundraiser where we host A "poker run" in which participants, geared towards motorcycles, must visit five to seven checkpoints, drawing a playing card at each one. The object is to have the best poker hand at the end of the run. Followed by food, raffles, and good times with fun people. All proceeds go toward supporting local Veteran's initiatives.

Our local chapter in Clarksville, TN. CVMA TN 18-2 Queen City, has taken on the honor to raise money to have a by-name memorial named the Combat Veterans Memorial of the Fallen, to be erected in a local park. This memorial will have the names of all Fort Campbell, Kentucky Soldiers that made the ultimate sacrifice in Iraq or Afghanistan since 11 September 2001. As of now, we have more than 650 brothers and sisters that would be enshrined upon this memorial. Many of our chapter members, spouses and family knew these brave men and women who did not return home. Bringing this memorial to fruition gives those members, as well as the friends and family in the communities surrounding Fort Campbell, a place to visit their lost loved ones and fallen comrades.
