We finally shared Camp Lejeune and New River with the world this week! We also enlightened our audience on why military spouses can’t have it all, played some fun games and gave away tips for making the PCS process easier.

We’ve included links (for easy sharing), the copy for the posts (in case you’ve already used up all your creative juices today), the hashtags (for optimal millennial reach) and the MILLIE logos and branding information (in case you want to feature us on your front page or something).

If you’re one of our partners, please send us what’s been happening in your world lately by emailing me at alexis@gomillie.com.

Post Copy: “My belief is that corporate America and the government appreciates your service, but not enough to give you appropriate credit for it. And while many groups tout that volunteer experiences count towards your resume, I fear that experience doesn’t count for much or certainly less than you think it should.” — Jeremy Hilton #IamMILLIE
