EGLIN AIR FORCE BASE, Fla. - Kids participated in the mock deployment, experiencing a glimpse of what their loved one goes through when they leave home. Kids received dog tags and “immunizations” in the deployment line, were briefed by the commander, and then were shipped off to a deployed location.
