MOAA Triangle Chapter Dinner Meeting - Friday, Nov 7th, 2025

Triangle MOAA hosted the NC Council of Chapters Annual Meeting Dinner on Friday, November 7th, 2025 at the NC State University Club. The MOAA North Carolina Council of Chapters Annual Meeting took place the following day here in Raleigh.

The event was very special as we hosted MOAA leadership from our headquarters in Alexandria, VA, and leaders from across the state to join us and break bread.

The opening ceremonies kicked-off at 18:00, led by Master of Ceremonies CDR Linc Smith, USN (ret), CWO4 Jay Garbus, USA (ret), and COL Herb Segal, MC, USA (ret).

Color Guard duties were ably performed by the Cary High School NJROTC Color Guard. CWO4 Jay Garbus, outgoing president of the NC Council of Chapters, welcomed attendees and delivered remarks.

The link below will lead you to the highlights of the opening ceremony, including COL Segal's moving invocation, recalling the heroism of Audy Murphy during World War II.

Of the 56 in attendance, COL Segal welcomed three new chapter members.

Our special guest was Lieutenant General Brian Kelly, USAF (retired). He spoke to the assemblage after dinner. His remarks are recorded in the link below.
