In her first major advocacy mission, Mrs. Obama called on Americans to reach out to military families.

Mrs. Obama has said she wants to focus on military families as first lady.

Mrs. Obama also gave her first network television interview since the inauguration at Fort Bragg with ABC's "Good Morning America."
