When was AUSA national startedI heard the Armys professional organization was started from the US Army Field Artillery Association?
You are correctin part. In the late 1940s, there was a movement within the Army to merge branch associations to form an All-Army association and publish a single ground combat journalnow known as AUSAs Army magazine. The Field Artillery and Infantry Associations merged staffs and financial support to form AUSA, which published its first magazine, then called the Combat Forces Journal (CFJ), in August 1950. CFJs logo carried the subtitles Field Artillery Journal and Infantry Journal and was presented as a continuation of those publications until the subtitles were dropped in 1954 when the magazine became Army. In the early 1970s, after AUSAs membership was strong and truly All-Army, the Field Artillery reestablished its professional association and began republishing the Field Artillery Journal.
