Daughter of Virginia Guard Soldier recognized as one of “Our Military Kids of the Year”

With the help of Admiral Jonathan Greenert, Chief of Naval Operations, and Admiral Dirk Debbink, Chief of the Navy Reserve, Petty Officer Christopher Karnbach returned two weeks early from his deployment to Cuba with the Navy Reserve, surprising his wife, Anne Marie, and their children, Christopher, 9, and Abigail, 7, at the Our Military Kids event held April 19 at U.S. Navy Memorial in Washington, DC. Our Military Kids honored the Karnbach family of Hollywood, Md. as the Our Military Kids Family of the Year. Mrs. Karnbach nominated both children, and after reading their nominations, the Our Military Kids team determined the entire family was worthy of recognition. (Photo by Cotton Puryear, Va.
