Letter from your Family Readiness Officer
Hello Families and Friends of 1st Reconnaissance Battalion!
On behalf of the Commanding Officer, and our Marines, and Sailors, Welcome to the 1st Reconnaissance Battalion Family Readiness Program. My name is Staff Sergeant Adrian Angel, and it is a pleasure, and an honor to serve as the Family Readiness Officer (FRO) for 1st Reconnaissance Battalion. I am dedicated to providing you with all of the resources, and tools needed to successfully meet the unique challenges of the military lifestyle.
The mission of the Family Readiness Program is to equip our Marines, Sailors, and their families with the tools they need to meet the challenges of military life. As your FRO, I am here to provide official two-way command communication, information and referral services as well as readiness, and deployment support. Often, during the tough times, the greatest comfort one can have is to know they have someone to turn to for assistance. During those times, count on your FRO to be there, and ready to assist.
Whether you are new to the Marine Corps Family, or have been a family for several years, Marine Corps Family Team Building (MCFTB) offers many valuable workshops that will assist you in transitioning into the Marine Corps Family. I use a wide range of opportunities to share information from emails through Marine Online (MOL).
At 1st Reconnaissance Battalion, Family Readiness is one of our Commander’s Priorities and I would like to ensure you have access to all the tools to make you successful, and make your time with us as rewarding as possible.
