Lt. Col. Ryan L. Coughlin, operations officer, 13th Marine Expeditionary Unit, I Marine Expeditionary Force, shows attendees a binder featuring artwork his children sent him on deployment, during the Warrior Kids Series graduation at the Marine Corps Family Team Building Center aboard Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton, Dec. 14. The three-session series provided children, ages six though 12, a way to learn how to understand their parent’s deployment and feelings associated with their separation. “It was a really helpful thing for the children to go to,” said Nancy Coughlin, wife of Coughlin. “This series helped the kids to understand the feelings they went through during my husband’s recent deployment. I highly recommend it.” The 13th MEU deployed in February 2011 with Boxer Amphibious Ready Group and supported multiple theater security cooperation exercises while providing maritime security in 5th and 7th Fleet Areas of Responsibility.
