I know this post is somewhat dated but I got lot of good info from it, thanks to all who posted. I’ll be starting the Q in a few months. I agree with Dusty’s post. I don’t have any kids but am currently on my 4th deployment. My wife and I have been together for three of them and just had our first anniversary in July. We have more time spent apart than together (not an uncommon story).
One thing that has always given me comfort and the ability to do my job to best of my ability is her taking care of all of our home and personal needs while I’m away. I know when I leave for training or deployment she has everything under control. This allows me to focus all my attention on what’s going on now. She knows I love her and I’ll call her when I can; she doesn’t bother me with the small stuff.
