This web site provided on a volunteer basis by Roadrunners Internationale an association of retired CIA, Air Force, and Support Personnel of Area 51 U-2 Project Aquatone, A-12 Project OXCART, and A-12 Operation Blackshield in appreciation of services rendered by the Nellis AFB Retiree Affairs Office to our former military members and our fellow brothers and sisters serving or having served in the Unites States Armed Forces.

Email-Club Weekly Updates

     Disclaimer: The Retiree E-Mail Club Weekly Updates is published by the Nellis AFB Retiree Activities office to inform its members of current events, changes in legislation, defense policies, and items of interest, which have come to our attention during the week. Some articles have appeared in publications received from military facilities, government agencies, military service organizations you can find on the Internet. While every effort is made to verify information in this Newsletter, the RAO staff can’t guarantee the accuracy of information by outside agencies. The RAO reserves the right to edit any/all material.

Volunteers Needed

 The Retiree Activities Office (RAO) has received a request from the legal office to provide them with a list of volunteer witnesses.  The legal office is sometimes called out to support active duty members or retirees who are in the hospital and need a will or a power of attorney done.  The legal office provides the Notary but they also require witnesses to travel from their homes to a hospital on short notice.  We agreed to try to establish a database of volunteers from which they can select a volunteer near the needed location.

If you are interested in becoming a member of the volunteer database, please contact the RAO at (702) 652-9978 or 8712 or e-mail us at rao@nellis.af.mil.

The RAO is constantly in need of volunteers to provide counseling to retirees.  If you are a retiree, spouse of a retiree, widow or widower (with previous military retiree spouse), and would like to be trained in how to assist retirees with their problems and benefits, please contact the RAO at the above telephone number or e-mail.  RAO volunteers are asked to work three hours per week in Room 135 of Building 20 ( Mission Support Building ) where they counsel other retirees.  Each volunteer will be fully trained before they start counseling.  The RAO is open Monday through Friday from 9 A.M. until  3 P.M. with three hour shifts from 9-12 and 12-3.




Our staff publishes a E-mail-Club Weekly Update on matters of interest to our retirees. Please contact the retiree office to be added to the distribution list.

Below are links to web-sites that provide information on Veterans benefits and how to file/ask for them. Accordingly, there are many sites that explain how to obtain books, military/medical records, information and how to appeal a denied claim with the VA. Nearly 100% of this information is free and available for all veterans, the only catch is: you have to ask for it, because they won't tell you about a specific benefit unless you ask for it. You need to know what questions to ask so the right doors open for you -- and then be ready to have an advocate who is willing to work with and for you, stay in the process, and press for your rights and your best interests.
