Warmamas is a project about a special group of mothers. They are the mothers of soldiers who serve - or have served - in our military in a time of war. The majority of these soldiers have been deployed to the Middle East and Southwest Asia. Most have returned home. Some have not. This project attempts to provide the mothers of these soldiers a public platform on which to tell their own stories, each narrative as unique as it is universal.
HOW DO I SHARE MY STORY?
Video stories submitted to warmamas.com will be reviewed for possible posting on the website and the warmamas youtube channel. Submissions may be edited for length, clarity, and/or functionality. No submission may contain material that is abusive, vulgar, threatening, libelous, defamatory, obscene, unlawful, invasive of privacy or known to be false.
Given the sensitive nature of operations overseas, do not refer to specific names, dates, and/or locations. Only a mother's first name and city or state will be used publicly if submission is selected. Videos should be limited to 6 (six) minutes.
