Anyone know if there is a chapter in Northern Italy? I am stationed in Vicenza.

Can any other CVMA members tell me if someone can be a member of a VETERAN/ MILITARY MC, and a CVMA member. I cannot find any guidance on the subject.
Any help would be appriciated.

I believe the answer is "yes." I know at least one CVMA members who is also a member of an "MC" club. I recall a proposal to pass a rule that officers of commanders or something would not be allowed to also be members of an MC, so that tells me they are allowed now.

Brenn,
Thanks alot. A few good buddies at my installation have been looking rather seriously at starting a Veteran/ Military MC and I plan to support them however I can. i just am hoping to continue with the CVMA. if there are others out there that can support this, or shed some light on the subject, please do.

yes, you can. we have more than a couple of members here in la that are also members of the leathernecks mc.

as far as the patch goes, it would be up to the mc that you belong with as to how that is handled. the leathernecks guys wear the leatherneck patch, with a cvma patch on the front of the vest.

i was gonna comment on getting in touch with the coc first, but notice that you're in germany..... never mind.
