  • Better Opportunities for Single Soldiers (BOSS)

Let Your Voice Be Heard!

The Better Opportunities for Single Soldiers (BOSS) program represents the voice of the single Soldier.

BOSS serves the Single Soldier Community (e.g., active, guard and reserve): single parents, geographical bachelors, all US Military Service Branches and Foreign Service Members assigned to the Installation. If you participate in BOSS volunteer activities, log your hours through the Volunteer Management Information System (VMIS). Keeping track of service hours can enhance promotion packets and career development.

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
