    2. 'Echo Education'

      This board is a place where wisdom and references have been shared, but are universal to military girlfriends. We don't want the wisdom to fade away, so it is preserved here for all to see.

      As a reference library, informational posts should be made and closed. Provide a link to the discussion in the informational post.

      This board has been lovingly named after one who gives so much of herself to the ladies here ... although it may contain knoweldge from other members as well. Carry on!
