Due to the number of military families living overseas, a separate set of European Links has been added to this site. As you continue to share information about Europe and other overseas installations with the webmaster, additional pages/links will be added.

 

Since this is an "all spouses, all branches" website, let's start with the generic resources available to all military spouses. After those, you will find resources dedicated to your specific branch, or locale. The list of online chat rooms, web rings, discussion boards and forums dedicated to the support of U.S. military families is a long and impressive list that warrants its own dedicated page ~ please click on "networking". Please visit often to see what's new.
