Combat Veterans Motorcycle Association® Ohio Chapter 12-7

Make Sure to Follow Us On Facebook!

We are an Association of Combat Veterans from all branches of the United States Armed Forces who ride motorcycles. Our mission now is to support and defend those who have defended our country and our freedoms. Our focus is to help veteran facilities or simply to say, “Thank You” and “Welcome Home.”

Our membership is comprised of Full Members (those with verified combat service), Auxiliary Members (spouses of Full Members) and Supporter Members (those who have 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 deployed in combat areas now.
