Building Family at Fort Irwin

Family is important anywhere, but as many Soldiers and their families will tell you, it's even more important in the Army. In fact, family is often what makes all the training, moving and deployments possible -- and worth it. Today, for our holiday episode, we bring you stories about our "Army Family", the close bonds we form with each other and our communities. You'll hear from the mother-daughter team heading up Fort Irwin's gymnastics program, and from the Protestant Women of the Chapel -- a group its members call a "second family". Finally, we highlight two volunteers whose work is driven by the belief that our community is our family, and we must all take care of each other.
