Month of the Military Child Purple Up! Day
April 15th 2026 is Purple Up! Day in celebration of Month of the Military Child. Army Community Service staff members are highly encouraged to wear purple to work on this day to show our support and thank military children and youth for their courage, resilience, and sacrifices.
Purple is chosen to symbolize all branches of the military. It is a combination of Army green, Marine Corps scarlet, Coast Guard, Navy, and Air Force blue.
