Army 101 teaches families about Soldier's life

Basic combat training might be an enormous challenge to a young Soldier, but it's also stressful for Family members. An online program helps Families learn about their Soldier's new lifestyle, and their participation can provide the Soldier-in-training a few extra benefits.

"It can give their son or daughter an extra 10 minutes on the phone," said Lt. Col. Mark Anders, 1st Battalion, 79th Field Artillery commander, "or we'll post their picture on Facebook, or do a shoutout video."

He calls it "Army 101."
