Saw this quiz on a blog post from fellow Army Wife Mrs.Krista Koons from, Life Is The Messy Bits who in turn got it from Janey's Favorite Things it's a super fun little Military Spouse Quiz (makes me miss the Myspace days I swear) seeing as in about 2 1/2 weeks I will no longer be an active duty Military Wife but the wife of a seasoned Army veteran I should take this opportunity while I can ;)

 

The MilSpouse Quiz

He was already in the military, it didn't factor in at all in my choice to be with him.  To me it was just his job and any difficulties or hardships that came with it were just part of life and part of being married.  You're in a committed relationship you're there for the good and bad.

24. Do you own military wife stuff? yeah lol a couple shirts and a pair of underwear ;)

25. Do you support your spouse as a member of the military? Yes, I support all military members.  And i support my husband in everything he does.  I started a military wife support group, but if he was a janitor I would've started a Janitor's wife support group.  The military doesn't define my husband it's not who he is, it's his job.  but yes I do
