Is someone yelling random words at you? Or are they trying to tell you something? It’s the Phonetic Alphabet, today on Explaining Army Stuff to Normies #thomtran #standup #usarmy #military #comedian
From the moment military spouses walked into Vista Point at Naval Station Norfolk, the day was built around connection, conversation, resources, and real support. There were speakers, workshops, giveaways, table conversations, familiar stories, new friendships, and plenty of moments that reminded us how much military families carry every single day.
Thank you to USAA, VetClaims.ai, and National University for helping make MilSpouseFest Norfolk possible and for showing up in support of military spouses and families.
Thank you to Virginia Beach Mayor Bobby Dyer for joining us and helping open the day with a message of support for this community.
Thank you to Capt. Ray A. Glenn and the Naval Station Norfolk team for welcoming us and helping create the space for this event.
Thank you to LyndaLee Lunday, U.S. Coast Guard Ombudsman at Large, for sharing wisdom from 36 years as a Coast Guard spouse and reminding this community what it means to stay ready, stay connected, and keep showing up.
And thank you to Thom Tran for bringing the laughs, the energy, and the kind of humor only this community can fully appreciate. He gave the room a chance to relax, laugh at the weirdness of military life, and remember that sometimes the best part of these events is just getting to enjoy being around people who get it.
And thank you to every speaker, resource provider, volunteer, attendee, and military spouse who made the day feel personal. You showed up, shared your stories, brought your questions, encouraged one another, and helped create the kind of room this community deserves.
