As a very brief overview (and from the National MOWW site):

The Military Order is a patriotic nonpartisan tax exempt IRS 501c19 organization, which holds that it is “nobler to serve than to be served.” The Order was established in 1919 to promote the welfare of our Nation. Because it clearly is not a self-seeking organization, the Order is widely respected and listened to, throughout all branches of the Government and across the Country.

The Order provides an opportunity for Officers of all of the Federal Uniformed Services to unite in a strong program to promote National Security, Patriotism, Good Citizenship and Service to Country.

The Order is comprised of over 131 Chapters across the nation. The Chapters hold regular meetings to hear important speakers on all issues, especially National Security and to plan and implement programs in support of the Order’s Preamble.

The Order sponsors ongoing programs by which you can help the Nation maintain a strong military posture. Over the years, our consistent, effective support has helped with significant legislative, personnel, and hardware improvements in our Nation’s National Security position.

The Military Order enables you to unite with thousands of other citizens and know that you will be heard on matters of National Security, law and order and other important issues. The Order presents its opinions to all branches of government...along with the facts and figures, resolutions, and important military expertise to strengthen our Nation at home and abroad.
