Deployed warriors: Remember them, support them
December 15th, 2009
There are people whose sole focus is on the holidays: planning, travelling, wrapping gifts, decorating and spending quality time with family and friends. They are the lucky ones.
For many servicemembers, their focus is on making the most out of the time they have before saying goodbye to friends and loved ones as well as making final preparations for their departure.
During this hectic time of year, it's easy to forget about deployed Airmen and those they leave behind. As we enjoy this holiday season, let's remember that our family extends beyond those in our homes. The term "Air Force family" is not just words, it's a sentiment that embraces all of us and challenges us to take care of one another.
