Real life issues addressed at the Quality of Life Conference
The life that a man or woman experiences while serving in the military is often one of sacrifice, hardship and honor. A normal day is often long and stressful. Families aren't perfect outside the military and they are no different inside except the normal stressors on a military family are extraordinary. Families break all the time. Some breaks are permanent, some temporary, some caused by the stressors of a military life. Now throw in deployments to overseas locations where families cope with strong cultural challenges, language barriers, and being a thousand miles from their own homeland. Now we have to throw 9 years of combat operations into the mix. Deployments mean more sacrifice, hardship and places fragile families in danger of breaking and solid families endure loneliness, depression and loss of intimacy.

Thank you so much for your support of the Veterans Day . The army navy and the whole military are the best thing that ever happened to this world. I agree, that Admiral Stavridis are best man and great Veteran . My father and my uncle are veteran's and someday i can share that dream one day.
As always, Adm. Stavridis communicates so well that I believe he's talking to me directly. He is a great man.
Thank you for your service Admiral. You are doing a terrific job. You should be proud of your accomplishments.
