Military and civilian personnel came out to support and cheer for their children as they paraded around the courtyard of the Schriever Space Complex at the Space and Missile Systems Center, Los Angeles AFB in El Segundo, Calif. Apr. 26, 2018. The parade, hosted by the 61st Air Base Group’s Child Development Center, was a final event of festivities during the Month of the Military Child (MOMC) which is celebrated each April. This awareness month was established to underscore the important role children play in the Armed Forces community. Military children face unique challenges such as frequent moves, stress of deployments, and family separations, causing them to constantly adjust to distance, unfamiliarity and uncertain schedules. MOMC recognizes the important role played by military children in the armed forces community and their unique contribution and sacrifice they make to our nation by understanding and supporting their parents who often work long hours during mission.
