The term military family refers to the immediate and extended relatives, as well as friends or caregivers who provide support for a member of the armed forces. This includes spouses, children, parents, siblings, grandparents, aunts/uncles, cousins, in-laws, stepfamily members, foster family members, and other close relatives or individuals who play an important role in their lives. Military families often face unique challenges due to the nature of military service such as frequent moves, deployments, and separation from loved ones. They also experience pride, sacrifice, resilience, and a strong sense of community that comes with being part of the military family.
