Group Holds Appreciation Dinner For Fort Bliss Military Spouses Friday Night

Military spouses are just like civilian spouses. They raise kids, go to work, clean the house, go grocery shopping, but they do it in cities that aren't their hometown, and often without their loved one because they are serving a deployment. Now, it's time for a little pampering for those amazing military spouses.

Operation Homefront usually helps military families and wounded warrirors with emergency financial, and other assistance, but Friday night, they are going to host a night in celebration of military spouses. Operation Homefront knows how much of the load military spouses bear, and they hope Friday night's dinner will help relieve a little of the stress.

The dinner is open to all military spouses. This event is a great idea because military spouses often move every 2 years, so they're always the new girl in town. This is a wonderful way to get together with other military spouses in the area and get either acquainted with the El Paso area, or pass on some tips on living in the city!
