Posted, deployed, or holding down the fort, mothers stand as leaders in our community, and in the Defence Team. Our moms can be members of the Canadian Armed Forces or civilians, and they bring diverse perspectives to our organization. Maybe you know a mother – a parent, family friend or other relative – who stands alongside their military spouse. Each day mothers support their children, partners, colleagues, and our country.
