The Marines and the Army are on the move. Not to Iraq or Afghanistan, but to the aid of children who have special needs and their families.

Both the Marines and the Army have launched large initiatives to address the medical, educational, and emotional challenges faced by special-needs families. Our men and women in the service are burdened with enormous stress in their lives. These military initiatives are very encouraging. The 2010 Defense Authorization Act, signed by President Obama in October, calls for a new Defense Department office of support for families with special needs. It will ensure consistency of services across all military branches.

Right on!
