There is a special connection between military wives, and husbands. Military marriage is not some silly selected segregation. Nobody but a military wife can know the torment that they live through every day. When they are away it hurts, and even when they are home it hurts. If he is serving overseas or simply serving his time in his own country, your military man, or wife, is serving something apart from his own family.
The ways in which each military marriage survives are all personal and unique to their own, but the emotional journey is one that can really be understood only by another military wife. The one thing all military spouses have in common with each other is their ultimate pride in their husbands and wives, and to survive the journey as a military spouse, their shared pride of place alongside their incredible military husbands and wives.
I am sorry, I don’t know who said "The military wife fights the first battle when she kisses her husband good-bye”, but to them I say, “How true”.
