![]() ![]() for all surviving Department of Defense identification card holders. Services offered through the Military and Family Readiness Centers strive to provide both short and long-term support to our survivors with the goal of ensuring survivor family members are supported with casualty assistance representation and a survivor care team from the local Military and Family Readiness Center providing an integrated approach to survivors care including relocation assistance and financial counseling. The Gold Star and Air Force Families Forever programs ensure that all surviving family members and authorized next of kin are provided with long-term support granting them access to the nearest base. The gold star let the community know that their service member died or was killed while serving their country. If their service member died in service, the family replaced the blue star with a gold star. The Gold Star program started during World War I families displayed small banners with a blue star for every immediate family member serving in the armed forces. ![]()
