Wilkes-Barre PA, February 14, 2003--
Community-based military members and their families are
entitled to the same valuable Red Cross emergency
services as full-time active duty personnel. When your
doctor, your pharmacist, or your neighbor is mobilized
or deployed with the Reserve or National Guard, the
American Red Cross is there. We keep them in touch with
their families at home, verify emergency leave
information, secure emergency financial assistance and
help families cope with separation when their loved ones
are far from home in defense of our country. The AFES
program will initiate support groups and start mental
health counseling if conflict breaks out with Iraq.
You can help the Red Cross by keeping close at hand
specific information you will need to quickly contact
someone in the military. This includes their full name,
social security number, address where they are deployed,
home base unit and name and phone number of your local
Red Cross chapter.
