About Oakleaf

Oakleafers enjoy a White House tour.
The Oakleaf Club is a both a social and benevolent group with a rich and storied history. The club began in 1947 as the Navy Medical Corps Officers' Wives Club of Washington DC, and started with seventy-five Navy doctors wives and dues of 25 cents! Needless to say, the Club has grown and changed in many wonderful ways since that time.
We are both a social and benevolent organization.
In 2007, Oakleaf reinvigorated our status as a non-profit 501(c)(3) association. Oakleaf is now open to active duty and retired officers, warrant officers and their families across the military services, as well as DoD employees of rank GS-7 and above, affiliated with military medicine. With the upcoming consolidation of NNMC Bethesda and Walter Reed Army Medical Center, the club continues to look at how we might expand membership and embrace the growing needs of Military Medicine.
Oakleaf's activities and charitable projects develop understanding and friendship within the Military Medical Community, including the Dental, Nurse and Medical Service Corps members while also promoting high "esprit de corps."
Oakleaf is a non-profit 501(c)(3) association.
While Oakleaf is a club committed to promoting friendship through social activities and interest groups, our main focus is supporting our military community through ongoing benevolence projects in the DC area, and particularly at the National Naval Medical Center in Bethesda MD.
