American Heroes: Celebrating the Service of America’s Military Children

The latest recruit at the 180FW, Finley, came to work with her father, Master Sgt. Brad Haas, a recruiter assigned to the wing. There are more than 200,000 military children under the age age of five with parents in the National Guard or Reserves. These children face all the same challenges of other children growing up, but they also face the added struggle of parents who might deploy to distant locations, even combat zones, for long periods of time, missing major milestones such as birthdays, school recitals, and sporting events.
