Our Objective
For over a century, AAFMAA has protected service members and their families. With coverage up to $800,000 and over $908 million in assets, we stand ready to protect your financial needs.

AAFMAA works hard to earn the trust of its members. All members receive our Survivor Assistance Services, including prompt benefits payments and filing of claim forms with government and insurance providers. Because AAFMAA policies have NO war clause, NO aviation clause or exclusion and NO terrorist clause, payment is certain in the event of a combat death.

AAFMAA remains committed to providing the absolute lowest cost life insurance policies to Army and Air Force personnel. Younger insureds can save up to 41% over SGLI with our Level Term I policy. Older members enjoy even greater savings up to 75% over VGLI with our Level Term II policy. Unlike government plans, you can keep and buy more AAFMAA policies after you leave the military.

Call 1-877-398-2263 for rates on our term insurance or Value-Added whole life for members, spouses, children, and grandchildren.

Our History
The Army Mutual Aid Association was established in 1879 after the Battle of Little Big Horn, or "Custer's Last Stand." During frontier times when an officer died, the remaining soldiers would literally "pass the hat" to raise money for the surviving family. This system collapsed, however, with the Battle of Little Big Horn. There were too few survivors to pass the hat, thus leaving the deceased soldiers' families in need. To remedy this situation, Army officers established the Army Mutual Aid Association.
