Off the Base, is a multi-media project designed to build a bridge and give the civilian community a better understanding of military life for service members and their families. Of special interest are military families dealing with multiple deployments to the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. Those deployments weigh equally heavy on the family at home as the service member in harm’s way. There are stories of success and stress that need to be told. We’ll hear from families preparing for deployment, currently living through a deployment and about the adjustments after a service member returns home.
