Children of Fallen Patriots Day Honors the Sacrifice of Service Families in West Virginia and Across the Nation
More than 20,000 children have lost a parent or loved one in the line of duty over the past 40 years, May 13 has been set aside as Children of Fallen Patriots Day to honor the children whose lives were forever altered because of their parents’ service to our country.
Celebrating Military Children in April
April is the Month of the Military Child. With all the support that veterans receive, it is easy to sometimes overlook the sacrifices made by veteran family members. This month was established and is sponsored by the Departed of Defense Education Activity (DoDEA). Defense Secretary Caspar Weinberger created the Month of the Military Child in 1986, and the DoDEA has honored it ever since. During the Month of the Military Child, we highlight how important the family and children are for our service men and women.
