Hello Marine Families!

In this issue, learn how you can find information about YOUR Marine's unit and take a look at the restructuring we've done to make information on Iraq & Afghanistan deployments easier to find. Remember hotel reservations for the April conference need to be made by March 21! And we'd like to announce that MarineParents.com is now a 501(c)(3) public charity.

UIP: Unit Information Pages
 
How to Find Information About YOUR Marine's Unit
Marine Corps Battalion

The UIP (Unit Information Page) is a one to two page all-inclusive resource of information for your Marine's specific unit. The page includes unit history and location, USMC contact information and web sites for each unit as well as links to the MarineParents.com message board and the chat room schedule for that unit, giving you "a Place to Connect & Share" with other families in your Marine's unit. This is a free service from MarineParents.com, Inc.


Iraq and Afghanistan Deployment Pages
 
Updated information and layout to help navigation
Deployment Information Center

We're in the process of re-working the deployment section of the web site to include a "Deployment Information Center" which gives you terms and definitions, category links, additional resources, and tips for connecting and sharing with other family members. We've completed the sections for Deployment to Iraq and Deployment to Afghanistan. Take a look at the new functionality and information.
