First Lady Michelle Obama traveled to Norfolk, Va. on Friday to welcome home the Navy crews of the USNS Comfort and USS Eisenhower Carrier Strike Group and to urge Americans to continue to support military families.

“Let us make a pledge right here today to honor their service by doing more to serve them in our own communities,’’ said Mrs. Obama, who met with sailors and their families. “Let’s do simple things, like offer to help with a carpool; simple things, like bringing over dinner.’’
