"In order to help expand the audience beyond the National Capital Region, we are live-streaming a number of events to include every Contemporary Military Forum and Military Family Forum," said Lt. Col. Michael Nicholson, of Army Public Affairs.
He noted that the family forums alone are already tracking more than 1,500 people from a number of installations across the U.S. and overseas who will be watching at central viewing locations.
Those locations are at Army Community Service offices or Family Assistance Centers and for the National Guard and Army Recruiting battalions, Family Readiness Groups will provide viewing locations.
