Stockton Fleet Reserve Association

Welcome to the Stockton Branch 113 website. The Fleet Reserve Association is the oldest and largest association representing enlisted Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard personnel. Established in 1924, FRA's mission is to safeguard the pay, benefits, and entitlements of the active duty, reserve, and retired members of the Sea Services.

Membership in the FRA is open to all enlisted personnel of the U.S. Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard. Commissioned Officers of the Sea Services that have at least one day of prior enlisted service are eligible to join too.

The FRA was formed in 1924 in Philadelphia, by Chief Yeoman George L. Carlin, USN (Ret.), a Sailor concerned about protecting the pay and benefits of enlisted Sailors. Carlin's vision to promote mutual loyalty, protection and service among Sea Service personnel is still evident in the FRA today. 
FRA was formed:
  • to uphold the traditions of the Navy, Marine Corps and Coast Guard,
  • to aid in maintaining adequate defense of the United States, and
  • to assist in obtaining the best type of personnel for our Sea Services.
  FRA pursues these goals by:
  • keeping members informed on Service matters,
  • honoring the memory of departed Shipmates, and
  • maintaining an interest in those who served and are now serving.
  FRA remains the oldest and largest professional military association, exclusively serving and representing the men and women of the three Sea Services. It continues to seek protection and equity for those who serve in, or have retired from, the Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard. The Association has demonstrated its tenacity in pursuing congressional support for enlisted quality of life and veterans' programs for more than 80 years.
