Super Max’s hero surprise

A heartwarming story about a military child separated from a loved one by deployment, and the love between them that holds no distance

Deployment (definition): Any movement from a military personnel’s home station to somewhere outside the continental U.S. and its territories (source: Dept. of Veterans Affairs).

• Since 2001, more than 2 million children have experienced a parent deployed at least once.
• Military families relocate ten times more than civilian families. This averages to a move every two to three years. 
• 37% of children with a deployed parent reported that they seriously worry about what could happen to their deployed caretaker.
• Children in military families experience high rates of mental health, trauma, and related problems.
