Great book!

As a soon-to-be military spouse, I found this book extremely helpful. It gives you insider details on things to look out for, thoughtful advice, and provides definitions and what all those new acronyms are! I will definitely will be referring to this book quite. I recommend this to every spouse new to the military!
