Video- Michelle Obama meets with families at Va Navy base



The Pentagon channel just kills me.

NORFOLK, Va.—First lady Michelle Obama is calling military families "quiet heroes" and urging the public to support them.

Obama spoke Friday at a homecoming gathering at the Norfolk Navy base in Virginia. She said military families represent the best in our nation, who serve the nation in their own way when their loved ones are deployed.

The first lady suggested that local communities support their military families by helping with carpools, bringing them dinner, helping spouses get a job or keep a job, or providing pro-bono legal or mental-health services.
