The military spouse is the true unsung hero. They don’t wear a uniform, but still carry the weight of service on their backs. This week, we have the honor of sharing the story of Nicki McCraney. Nicki is a mother of two, educator, counselor, and volunteer. But, maybe the greatest and most demanding title that she wears is “Military Spouse”.
In this episode, Nicki shares how her life evolved from a young military officer's wife into a critical member of the Army spouses community. She talks to us about the importance of communication, such as writing letters and sending packages to their spouses who are deployed in countries like Iraq and Afghanistan — all while taking care of their families at home. Finally, Nicki and I talk about what service means to her now and how we can all find opportunities to serve within our own communities.
