Fantastic book; these stories are real. It's not only the civilian spouses that go through this sort of thing. It's the military spouses as well. My husband missed our daughter's first birthday while he was on combat cruise and I had to fight tooth and nail to take leave from my squadron so she wouldn't be alone on her birthday.

This is a must-read for any future spouse of a military member who thinks that the life of a military spouse is easy...it's not easy on either side of the equation, or either side of the world.

Get this book. It is filled with true life stories that are sometimes funny and sometimes make you just cry.
