Message from VINGA President

Welcome to the Virgin Islands National Guard Association’s website. The association is your advocate to effect change at both local and national levels. We will be your voice to address your issues and concerns to the Legislature of the Virgin Islands.  As a member of the National Guard Association of the United States, you have a voice in Washington. Together we can make a difference.

I would like to thank our membership for their continued support. It is my intent to grow the membership of the association, especially at the company grade level. While your membership is important, your involvement is of paramount importance. John F. Kennedy said: “Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country.” Get involved and make a difference!

– LTC (Ret) Beresford F. Edwards, VINGA President
