McMoneagle retired from the Army in 1984 with the rank of Chief Warrant Officer. His Legion of Merit citation referenced his contributions to intelligence collection through unconventional means. After retirement, he continued as a civilian consultant to the STAR GATE program - operating under DIA oversight through the [[Sun Streak]] and STAR GATE code names - until its declassification in 1995.
He married Nancy Lea Honeychurch, the sister of Robert Monroe, the founder of the Monroe Institute in Faber, Virginia.

McMoneagle became associated with the institute after his retirement.
He married Nancy Lea, the stepdaughter of Robert Monroe, the founder of the Monroe Institute in Faber, Virginia.[^4] The Monroe Institute had developed methods for inducing altered states of consciousness using binaural audio technology and had trained some STARGATE viewers in out-of-body techniques. McMoneagle became associated with the institute after his retirement.
A memorandum of March 29, 1984 records that the Center Lane office awarded a personal services contract to [[Robert Monroe]] in July 1983 to examine his Hemi-Sync technology in the collection process, that its objectives were extended to train the source in Hemi-Sync "in anticipation of his continued participation in CL as a private consultant after his retirement," and that the project manager was "aware that Mr. McMoneagle will retire soon after completion of the training."[^5] The Center Lane chronology records the start of one-on-one training with Monroe between October 31 and November 4, 1983 and "MIAS Advanced Training completed" on July 13, 1984.[^6]
His wife [[Nancy McMoneagle]] was director of the Monroe Institute from 1983 to 1991 and president and executive director from 2014 until she retired on March 4, 2019; the Institute's Forms 990 list her as executive director and then president for tax years 2016 to 2018 at reportable compensation of $88,426, $93,017 and $96,985.[^4][^7]
He published two books describing his work and his theoretical framework: *Mind Trek: Exploring Consciousness, Time, and Space Through Remote Viewing* (Hampton Roads, 1993) and *Remote Viewing Secrets: A Handbook* (Hampton Roads, 2000). He has continued to participate in publicly available remote viewing demonstrations and research.
