During times of mobilization and deployment...
No one ever said that being in the Reserve, National Guard, or any other
community-based military position was going to be easy for you or your family.
Military life, in fact, often creates unforeseen hardships.
The good news is that American Red Cross Armed Forces Emergency Services (AFES)
helps community-based military members and their families cope with separation
and other special needs related to service in the armed forces.
As a community-based military man or woman you and your family are entitled
to the same valuable Red Cross emergency services as full-time active duty
military personnel.
