text: Today is Military Spouse Appreciation Day.  I want to recognize the strength, courage and optimism demonstrated by all the military families I meet.  Thank you to the husbands and wives of our heroes in uniform; America is grateful for your sacrifice.  If you are inspired to get involved in supporting military spouses and their families - or are a military spouse yourself - visit the link below for a list of organizations dedicated to improving the lives of service members and their families.
