We've been in 12 years this fall. Dh joined out of high school. This entire experience has been my very first and only exposure to the military!

Just over 10 years in the Army for me (I got out in 1996 ). It will be a year in July as an Army mom.

Life is a Journey (follow my blog about my journey)

almost 6 years

Dh went to a USAFA for college, so he's technically been in 8 years. We've been married almost 4 years, so that's how long I've been living a military life.

I was born into military family- Dad joined pre WWII and served 28 years getting out during Vietnam. After he retires we were still military but in different way.

I could not serve- failed the medical

Won my DH's heart when I packed his mobility bag in 15 minutes for Grenada- he was impressed. He thought it would be easier on me if he got out and stopped playing with bombs.

My brother served in 1st Gulf War and my sister served during Bosnia

My DD enlisted her Jr year of HS and 1 week after HS graduation was on her way to Bootcamp. She is expected to return from Iraq in early July- cross my fingers, eyes,toes etc.

So for about 9 years I was away from military life, I'm now 45.
DD says I didn't qualify as a dependent and thinks that Dependable Supporter would be an appropiate title
