Marines, Sailors, Families and Friends of 1/1,
I am your Family Readiness Officer, Erica Shaw. I would like to take this opportunity to introduce myself to you and ensure you are familiar with the unit's Family Readiness Program and what the program can do for you and your family.
I served as an active duty Marine from 1996-2008 earning the rank of Gunnery Sergeant. I am married to an active duty Marine Staff Sergeant. I have experienced both ends of long deployments, PCS moves, reenlistments, promotions and every other major event that comes with the military lifestyle. Experiencing both sides of these life and career events gives me an understanding of what the active duty military member faces as well as how the family is affected by these events.
My mission as a Family Readiness Officer is to ensure that you and your family have the information and resources available to you to get through the many military lifestyle events in the best possible fashion. I support the family through official communication and family outreach, information and referral and readiness and deployment support. The definition of family: born into, sworn into, married into has now been expanded to include not only your parents, siblings, spouse, children, but also extended family, fiancées, girlfriends, boyfriends, and even friends. They can all be assisted by the Family Readiness Officer regardless of your marital status.
I feel privileged to be a part of the 1st Battalion, 1st Marines Family and I will do all that I can to ensure that our battalion's Family Readiness Program is a success. I am always available to you for any Family Readiness questions or concerns that you may have.
