Established in 1933 as the American Military History Foundation, renamed in 1939 the American Military Institute, and renamed again in 1990 the Society for Military History, the Society is devoted to stimulating and advancing the study of military history. Its membership (today more than 2300) has included many of the nation's most prominent scholars, soldiers, and citizens interested in military history.

From our friends and colleagues at the American Historical Association: We seek your help to increase the number of sessions on Military History represented at the AHA. We hope you and your colleagues will put together sessions that represent the best and most innovative work in your field. Our theme for the 127th annual meeting is "Lives, Places, Stories," and will take place in New Orleans January 3-6, 2013. Wherever possible we are particularly interested in sessions that represent more than one geographic area or approach to the subject; but we also intend this theme to be broad, and welcome a wide range of papers and sessions. For more information about proposing a session please visit the AHA website at http://www.historians.org/annual/proposals.htm. The submission deadline for session proposals is February 15th, 2012.
