Why the the children of Special Operations members?In today's increasingly unstable world, their parents are typically the first responders to dangerous international situations. The sacrifices these individuals and their families are required to make deserve recognition and justify additional support from those they are helping to protect. For a Special Operations family, "having your kids end up OK" is much more challenging when one or more parents are deployed, preparing for deployment or even upon returning from deployment.
