18yrs in the Army

Congrats to my hubby for 18 yrs in the Army and getting further in rank than he ever expected. But I believe a strong man grows because of the love, support and strong woman behind him. Boot Camp started him off in Oklahoma, and we have been to Texas, Georgia, South Carolina and now, Kentucky. We will end it here, providing the Army lets up end it at 20 yrs. He has been to NTC 9 times, getting ready to go a 10th time. He didn't go last time, because I had just been diagnosed with cervical cancer and surgery was scheduled during 2008 NTC. He has been deployed 2 times and getting prepped for a 3rd trip. He has been to Korea and yes, all it is a Drunk Fest. We were in Germany from 2001-2004, which was out favorite tour yet. We wish we could have stayed. That would have been fabulous. We have moved 5 times in the last 10 yrs, and without that change, I would have gone crazy with boredom. I know my husband has had some stressful units and been told he is a mean guy, but he has kept moving up in rank. So hopefully for him,well us.... he will make E8 before we retire. And I say we because WE are in the Army together, considering what wives have to go through, we go through it as one. Although we are better together, separation does make the heart grow fonder, even after all this time. Its almost like we were enlisted together. So baby, Congrats for being all you can be. 2 yrs and counting!!
