FOUNDING PRINCIPLES
Honesty & Integrity • Quality Customer Service • Commitment to Community

Eisenhower Bank is the military division of Broadway
National Bank which was founded in 1941, near Fort
Sam Houston, Texas, by Colonel Charles E. Cheever, Sr.
Its purpose was to serve the military families living in the
vicinity of Fort Sam Houston.

In 1943, Broadway opened a branch in a quonset hut
on Randolph AFB. From that date forward, Broadway
has always maintained a “military department,”
indicating a 65+ year commitment to serving the unique
banking needs of service members, retirees and the
civilian work force employed by the military.

In June 1973, Eisenhower Bank was chartered as a
separate bank for military customers and was selected
as the post bank for Fort Sam Houston. Permission was
obtained from President Dwight D. Eisenhower’s family
to use his name for this new military bank. Eisenhower
merged with Broadway’s Randolph location and both
became Eisenhower Bank.

Since that time, the bank has grown into one of the
nation’s safest and most secure banks, serving customers
in 50 states, three US territories and 21 foreign countries.
The bank has added branches at Lackland AFB, Texas
Training Annex (Medina); The Brooke Army Medical
Center in San Antonio; Goodfellow AFB, Texas; Killeen,
Texas, adjacent to Fort Hood; and the AMEDD Center
and School at Fort Sam Houston. In 2006, Eisenhower
Bank became the military division of Broadway Bank.
