>> families like ferris. we told the kids that derek is deploying and he's going to the great battle and he's going to fight the bad guys. daddy being away has been really hard on my kids. >> the fear and anxiety that comes with military service are felt by every family member. so the deployment is really hard on me as well. i'm missing my husband missing my best friend, and missing my partner. there's no one there to hug you and love you and tell you it's going to be okay. >> service members risk their lives to keep us safe, and this sacrifice takes an emotional toll on their spouses and children. that's why the uso provides vital programs that help keep family bonds strong. without the uso many, service members wouldn't be able to connect with their loved ones or read a bedtime story to their child from halfway across the world and without supporters like you, the uso couldn't give families the moments that keep them together. they seem so small, but they're huge to us. they keep us connected to our family, to our dad.
