There is nothing, I think, more unfortunate than to have soft, chubby, fat-looking children who go to watch their school play basketball every Saturday and regard that as their week's exercise.
-John F. Kennedy in address at U.S. Children's Bureau
Today is Memorial Day in the United States, a day we honor those in uniform who have put their lives on the line to serve their country.
At Exchange we want to take this opportunity to honor, in addition, the thousands of administrators, teachers, familiy child care providers, bus drivers, and cooks who provide care for over 200,000 children of military families as part of the military child care system. In the 20 years since enactment of the Military Child Care Act, military child care has undergone enormous change. Those changes have led to recognition by a number of organizations, including the National Association of Regulatory Administration and the National Women’s Law Center, as well as by President William Clinton, that the military child care system is a model worthy of emulation.
Thank you to all who provide this valuable service to families of women and men in uniform.
For 31 years Exchange has been chronicling the history of and trends in the early childhood profession.

Thank you so much for this article. I served in the United States Army during the Vietnam conflict. My service in the military absolutely gave me strength, discipline, organization and a love for this country. It also gave me a basis for serving others and that is what I do today and have done for the last 30+ years. I honor Sgt. Timothy Smith, who attended Kindertown Preschool as a child, and lost his life defending us 2 years ago in Afghanistan and all the other soldiers who have lost and those who continue to fight for our FREEDOM. There is no other country like ours!

It is always a good thing to acknowledge those who serve others. Remembering those who care for young children is equally good. However, Memorial Day is not about people who solely put their lives on the line for our country. Memorial Day remembers those who paid the ultimate price for our country--namely, their lives. Please let those of us who write in order to inform so many be careless with the facts. On this holiday, especially, it is a dishonor to those who died for our freedom.
