It's no good to lose touch with people who mean a lot.
My husband is a former Air Force pilot and my son is an active duty Army surgeon, recently returned from Iraq, so my pride in our military is passionate... and personal.
Struggling is mandatory. Suffering is optional.
Ignorance might be bliss, but it's irresponsible and dangerous too.
I'm as interested in the families and communities that surround our soldiers.
My husband was an Air Force pilot man years ago and recently an Air Force wife thanked me for my service! I laughed and said, 'No, I wasn't in the Air Force, my husband was!' And she smiled and said, 'If he served, you served. And thank you.'
