Keeping USS Lake Erie (CG-70) Families Connected During Deployment: The MY HERO Doll
Hi USS Lake Erie (CG-70) families,
We’re Matthew and Jaclyn Miller, and we’re excited to introduce you to the MY HERO Doll—a unique way to stay connected with your loved ones during deployment. As a military family, we know firsthand how hard separation can be, especially for families with young children or newborns. That’s why we created the MY HERO Doll, designed specifically to keep families close, even when duty calls.
What Is the MY HERO Doll?
The MY HERO Doll is a recordable doll that helps families stay connected during deployment. It allows you to record your voice, so you can send messages and stories home to your children. Whether it’s a bedtime story or words of encouragement, this doll ensures your presence is felt, even while you’re away serving on the USS Lake Erie.
Our Story
The MY HERO Doll was inspired by our personal experience as a military family. In 2020, I deployed on the USS Theodore Roosevelt (CVN 71) shortly after the birth of our son Mason. We used recordable storybooks to bridge the distance, allowing Mason to hear my voice every night.
When I returned home, Mason immediately recognized my voice and ran into my arms, a moment we’ll never forget. That experience motivated us to create the MY HERO Doll, so other military families can share similar moments of connection, no matter the miles between them.
How It Works
- Record Your Message: Speak directly into the doll to record your voice.
- Send It Home: Your family can play the recording whenever they need to hear your voice.
- Strengthen Your Bond: Even during deployment, your presence becomes a part of your child’s daily routine.
Perfect for USS Lake Erie Families
- Great for Deployments: Keeps your voice close, even during long separations.
- Comfort for Young Children and Newborns: Provides a sense of security and connection.
- Storybook Options: Make bedtime routines extra special with recordable stories.
