    Flu Prevention and Treatment – DoD Roundtable Discussion

    October 29, 2009 /

    MilitaryAvenue participated in a DoD Roundtable discussion this morning with Commander (Dr) Danny Shiau, a Navy Preventive Health specialist and Dr Robert Morrow, a subject matter expert for the seasonal flu and H1N1 flu.

    The Power of Reading

    October 28, 2009 /

    I’ve written a couple of times about the power of a book! When hubs was deployed we got a few books through the “United Through Reading” program sponsored by the USO. Hubs read books to the boys from Iraq, recorded on a DVD, and mailed to us. The boys received a DVD & book to read along with Dad, the opportunity to hear Dad’s voice and find the pleasure in a book. In fact, my boys enjoyed the books so immensely that I ordered a few Scholastic books through their school and included them in ‘care packages’ to Hubs. He could then make his own books-on-DVD to send back to…

    Planning for the Holidays – Programs that support you, the military family

    October 19, 2009 /

    Last year at this time our family was in the midst of our first deployment. Thanksgiving wasn’t giving me the usual warm and fuzzy vibes I get. Christmas was all but on the back burner. I just had other things to be thinking about… like my husband, & father of our three beautiful boys, off in a foreign land. I just ran across two great programs though that are perfect for the holidays. I wanted to be sure to share them with you.
