What is AFTB? . AFTB is designed to inform our Soldiers and Families of the benefits offered, both personally and as leaders. Army Family Team Building will teach you that the more informed you are about the military and its environment, the better their chances are for a successful career; and the better prepared your Families are to handle the challenges of military living, the more Soldiers can concentrate on the mission.

Daylight Saving Time (or summertime as it is
called in many countries) is a way of getting
more light out of the day by advancing clocks
by one hour during the summer. During
Daylight Saving Time, the sun appears to rise
one hour later in the morning, when people
are usually asleep anyway, and sets one hour
later in the evening, seeming to stretch the
day longer.
