Army Wives

Ok so now that I have lifetime and dvr cable I recorded the show Army Wives and watched it this morning. So for ms. mo...here's my take on the show.

Why is this show all about officer's wives? It doesn't surprise me any because they never have shows that have enlisted wives in them. The way the wives gossip is dead on.I have NEVER seen a humvee in a housing area. In fact I don't think that's allowed.Frank is a jerk. Unfortunately I know too many soldiers like him who expect their wives to be for show and be all about his career.Even though I'm an enlisted wife I know what a hail and farewell is. I've even been to them before. Granted it wasn't for the post commander or whoever, but enlisted wives are allowed to attend some of them.The redhead I don't remember her name. I know the feeling too well when you're husband is only home for a short time and you have to watch him walk out the door again. The look she had on her face when her husband walked out, I've been there too many times. What was her husband doing that he couldn't be home but was allowed to have a full beard?Does Joan's husband know that she's considering giving up her career for him? Did she cheat on him previously? I wish I could have seen the previous episodes so I know what is going on...
