  • President Bush announced that a timetable for pulling out of Iraq is a mission for “the next administration.” Even in peacetime we’ll have over 60,000 troops deployed to fight Global Terrorism. “I’m Already Home…Again” tackles the challenges of keeping our military families connected and strong while away from each other. Military families are especially vulnerable to tough separations. Now there’s an easy-to-follow, practical guide to fun and inexpensive ways for keeping our service men and women connected to their families while away in service to their country. “I’m Already Home…Again – Keeping your family close while on assignment or deployment” is an essential tool for military personnel preparing for active duty. The first edition of this work, “I’m Already Home”, is widely used by over 20,000 families. Now, expanded and updated, this book includes special features that make it even more useful and relevant to the unique demands of the military family. This book includes 212 connection ideas, over 75 resource websites, an expanded section on reunion and reintegration, added chapters for your extended family, schools, spiritual protection, and community/neighborhood services. All this wonderful information is combined with new stories and the original inspiration. “I’m Already Home…Again! ” has been called a message “of hope.”

    Awesome Resource!
    Customer Rating: 5 out of 5 
    I ordered the book becuase my husband is deploying and it gave us a ton of ideas to do, so now when he leaves we have happy memories but we also arn't going "oh crap...what do I do now?" Very effective prepare-ment tool!

    Amazing!

    Awesome book with many great ideas on how to stay close while your loved one is deployed. My husband just deployed and i have already used many of the ideas in this book. These ideas are a hit with all of the soldiers!

    A great comprehensive book about staying connected through deployment
    Customer Rating: 5 out of 5 
    This book is full of great ideas for staying connected while your service member is deployed. As a National Guard wife I was glad it was NOT branch specific. There are ideas here that will work for anyone experiencing deployment. Elaine's approach is no nonesense. She has gathered hundreds of ideas from military spouses so they are tried by the "sisterhood" before they ever make it into her book. I was lucky enough to see her speak at a NG family readiness conference and she is just as approachable in person. I just heard that she has a new book out, The Road Home which focuses on ideas to make the reunion and reintegration process go more smoothly! I can't wait to read it! I would definitely recommend this book!

    Awesome deployment book

    My husband and I are dual military, and we're using this book for his current deployment. The book has so many great ideas--things you can do before the parent leaves, while they're gone, and even for when they're coming home. The book is different from others because it actually gives you specific things to do to feel closer, instead of vague ideas that don't do anyone much good. I wish I had this book for my last deployment.

    FAB - U - LOUS!!
    Customer Rating: 5 out of 5 
    Really well done -- easy to read and full of great ideas. Buy it early if you can, so you'll have the time to employ some of the ideas prior to deployment. There are easy ideas that take little time too. I enjoyed this book and am using many of the ideas inside it.
