Sommario/riassunto

Even when we are not at war, military families often deal with stresses such as frequent moves or the absence of a parent. The Deployment Toolkit provides military families with advice for the many challenges they may be faced with when dealing with deployment, including types of separation/deployments, emotional adjustments, and types of support.
