Guest: Mike Schindler

Topic: Operation Military Family.

Bio: Michael Schindler spent the early part of his childhood growing up on Elmendorf Air Force Base where his dad was employed by the Alaskan Air Command as an engineer. His dad later transferred to the Army Corp of Engineers and Mike spent the next fifteen years under the continued influence of men and women in uniform. Michael enlisted in the US Navy where he experienced the culture of Singapore, Japan, Philippines and parts of Malaysia. Through his personal experiences in the military and his exposure to the hardships of long deployments on servicemen and women and their families, Mike began to see firsthand the need for marriage support services. Years later, those experiences led Michael to found Operation Military Family. As an inspirational speaker and trainer he is a strong advocate and promoter of what our government and our military is doing “right” because, as he is known to say, “the media does a great job of pointing out what isn’t going so right.”
