BOSS helps single service members enjoy their off-duty time, give back to the community, and gain valuable leadership skills. Looking for connection with like minded Soldiers, fun safe recreational activities, and a “voice” to make changes to your quality of life? Then BOSS is for you!

BOSS is designed for single Soldiers, by single Soldiers – giving them a say in life on post and in the barracks. Through BOSS, Soldiers can:

  • Share ideas on how to improve living conditions

  • Plan and join trips, sports, and social events

  • Give back by helping in the community

  • Develop leadership skills that apply to the military, too
