Ismaili Warrior Alliance
A public record of Ismaili Muslims who have served in the United States armed forces.
The record begins in 1977.
Service in the record begins that year. It runs from there to the present, generation by generation. Every name in it has an account behind it, and every account says where it came from.
The service is older than the Alliance.
Every start date in the record, in the order it happened. The names get thinner toward the present — not because the service stopped, but because it hasn’t.

An introduction is a conversation.
The Alliance is for Ismaili Muslims who have served in the United States armed forces. We are a private group, and what we keep is the record.
