History

The Defense Intel Alumni Association (DIAA) was created by a small group of separated and retired DIA civilian and military personnel in 1998. Then-DIA Director LTG Patrick M. Hughes approved DIA participation with DIAA and authorized DIAA to operate and meet at Agency facilities for educational and social purposes. In the last 23 years, DIAA expanded its membership, increased interaction with DIA, and delivered social and educational activities on behalf of its members.
