Welcome to the forums. I have the utmost respect to military spouses. My wife always told me that her job was tougher than mine

women always get the tougher job. very rare for the man to stay home and cope with kids and all, worse when you have to do it while also working.

actually, the worse part is when we are both off on exercise or other duties etc and having to organise someone to come in and look after everything. sometimes we can be away for a couple of weeks at a time.

luckily for me, being in Pay I rarely have to go off one bonus to being in admin side instead of cavalry (they don't let females into any combat roles over here.....yet
