As if the role of a wife weren't difficult enough. Some of the people making the biggest sacrifices in this country are the wives of our military men. Some of you are the wives of career military; others are just beginning this unique marital journey.
Share your experiences and the puzzles you've solved as a wife in the military; adjusting to the military lifestyle; dealing with TDYs and extended deployments, especially during these times of heightened security; keeping a sense of order amidst multiple moves; packing tips; dealing with pregnancy (or an adoption) while on the move or abroad; explaining moves and deployments to young children; keeping in touch with faraway family and friends; explaining duty and honor, danger and death, to children; keeping romance alive when you’re together again; dealing with death and moving on; transitioning back to civilian life; and so much more.
Share here the solutions that make military life work for you and your family. Or email them to use privately using the link at the top of this page.
