Bank launches CAF credit card

By Janice Wood · April 12, 2012 ·

USAA Bank now offers the Commemorative Air Force USAA Rewards World MasterCard credit card to help support the CAF’s community outreach programs and activities. USAA Bank makes a contribution to the CAF with every new account opened and each time card holders make an eligible purchase.

“The Commemorative Air Force is always seeking new opportunities to enhance our member experience,” said Stephan Brown, CAF president and chief executive officer. “I have been a member of USAA for 30 years, both my father and grandfather were life-long members, and USAA has offered exceptional service since 1922. We are happy to offer this new relationship to our members.”

“We’re happy to be working with the Commemorative Air Force to launch this co-branded credit card program,” said Eric Benken, retired 12th Chief Master Sergeant of the Air Force and USAA Military Affairs Air Force program manager. “We greatly respect the hard work and dedication required to preserve America’s military aviation history, and CAF’s leadership in that effort.”

In 2009, USAA opened its membership to all veterans who have honorably served and their eligible family members.
