My brother, being an officer in the Army, could not have picked a better wife than his wife Mindy. They were engaged the very weekend he received his commission. She is such an asset to him and to the military as she is a strong, fierce and well-organized American woman!

I have one of those. The only time mine forgot who she was occurred when we were flying into Atlanta during an Ice Storm. We were told before we landed that we were going to be stuck there overnight.

As we got into the terminal with our three little kids in tow, she looked at the pandemonium and looked at me and almost lost it. I gently grabbed her shoulders and said "Baby, you are an Army wife, I need you to act like one." She took a half step backwards blinked hard, and said "what needs to be done?" I told her to get some dinner for the family, and meet me back there when she was finished. I went and found what turned out to be a midnight flight home. (even after that she brought me something to eat.)

She laughs about it now and calls it her "thanks, I needed that" moment.
