Fort Gregg-Adams joins the Department of Defense in celebrating military children during the month of April.
While military members serve around the world, we often forget the challenges faced by their children. Military families move on average every two to three years, impacting military children through changing schools and support networks. There are more than 1.6 million military children whose spirits are tested, galvanized and strengthened by the many the unique experiences that come as a result of their parents' service.
