It's time for a Buddy Check
2025-09-14 08:00 - 17:00
If you served in the military, you had a friend who had your back. This was someone you could vent about things, when something happened to upset you.
The military, as a rule, doesn’t allow us to vent, except for what our Navy colleagues call “shipmate” or Air Force term as their “wing man.”
That’s why we at MilTRAC are setting aside the second Sunday of every month to call those comrades in arm.
