In the spirit of being a part of the online military community, this blog will spread the word about other military family inspired programs and initiatives.
Fresh Voices
In an all-volunteer force, it is vital the mind, body and soul of our service men, women and their families be sustained and nourished. Army Well-Being has released new blogs to stimulate conversation about how the Army, service members and their families work together to heighten the military quality of life.
We encourage our readers to check out the following Army Well-being blogs:
- Army More Source: An insider’s take on all things Army
- Heroes: June blog theme to salute those serving
- The Deployment: Thoughts on the craziness of deployment
Fatherly Love
In honor of our military fathers and fathers of those in the military, we are highlighting the book, The Military Father by Armin Brott.
From author’s site, Mr. Dad:
“Fathers today play a greater role with their families and children than ever before. However, military dads and dads-to-be are often separated from their families for extended periods of time. Unfortunately, there are very few resources for military (and deployed civilian) fathers, who are looking for guidance on how to be in close touch with their families back home. THE MILITARY FATHER, written by the country’s leading authority on fatherhood, will fill that gap, providing deployed dads with everything they need to know to stay (or become) involved with and connected to their family regardless of the distance that separates them.”
