Service Member Deployment

The vast majority of Navy deployments for Sailors are at sea or as part of a squadron or individual unit. However, in some cases a Sailor may deploy as an individual. Regardless of the type of deployment or the reason, the Fleet and Family Support Center (FFSC) has resources and support in place for your entire family.
