"We are a military family. My dad was Navy; our son was Army. So, we actually know what its like to be away from your family on Thanksgiving," the first lady said. "So even though you're away from your families at home and your home states, we know that you're here with your family here, because military is family."

POTUS 46 withdrew troops from Afghanistan. I think that's something to be thrilled about, being removed from a "forever War" with close to 0 public support.
