How did you hear about this event

PROCLAMATION

Thousands of brave Americans have demonstrated theircourage and commitment to freedom by serving the armed forces of the United

States of America in active duty posts around the world. More than 40 percent of these soldiers, sailors, airmen, and Marines have left families with children behind. More

than one million of America's children have at least one parent currently serving active military duty. These children are a source of pride and honor to us all, and it is only

fitting that we take time to recognize their contributions, celebrate their spirit, and let our men and women in uniform know that while they're taking care of us, we're taking

care of their children.

The recognition of the "Month of the Military Child," firstestablished in 1986 by Defense Secretary Caspar Weinberger, allows us to pay

tribute to military children for their commitment, their struggles and theirunconditional support of our troops, because when parents serve in the military,

their Kids Serve Too.
