About the MMA Times Newsletter
The Association's newsletter, MMA Times, is published to keep the membership informed of significant USAMU and Association events—past, present, and future.
The first MMA Times was published in August 1994. It is currently published four times a year. Normally, each issue has six pages, but can vary between four and eight pages. Inserts from other sources are sometimes included.
Articles come from the membership and the USAMU. The MMA President and the USAMU Commander write columns for most issues. Our membership also contribute stories. Member stories are a valued additions that help add a personal touch to the newsletter. Additionally, Executive Board members report on significant Association events. USAMU PAO articles and articles from other publications may also be included. Obituaries are published in the Taps, Present Arms column when the Association learns about the passing of a member of the marksmanship community.
All members are encouraged to send articles or information for publication directly to the Times Editor or to any Executive Board member. Send them by U.S. Postal Service or send them by E-mail, but please share your stories with the membership. For example, stories of past unit events, shooters, coaches, gunsmiths, matches, shooting trips, war stories, what you are doing now, or anything you believe would be of interest to the Association's membership are welcome. If an event was humorous or significant then, it surely will bring back memories to many of our members now. Write your recollections on a scratch pad or put them on a computer disk, but just get your stories to us. And don't worry about your writing style, we want to hear it in your own words!
Copies of past issues of the MMA Times are on file in the Association's office at the USAMU Headquarters building. To keep the printing cost down, we only print enough copies for current members plus a few copies to issue to new members joining the next quarter. Therefore, back issues of the MMA Times, particularly the earlier issues, are limited or no longer available for replacement.
From time-to-time we will feature articles from the MMA Times at this page. Click the Feature Story link to view the featured story.
