These Boots: A spouse’s guide to stepping up and standing tall during deployment

CD, 60 minutes

When your spouse deploys, the challenges -- emotional and practical -- can seem overwhelming. On this recording, Jacey Eckhart, a military wife for 18 years and columnist for the Virginian-Pilot, offers suggestions and strategies to help you prepare for deployment, survive (and even thrive) while you’re "married but single," and get ready for homecoming. You’ll also learn ways to communicate with your spouse, help children cope, use resources, and build a community for support and encouragement.
