He husband is a retired AIR FORCE colonel. Must be some interesting dinner conversations....
The first female Marine lieutenant general, Carol Mutter, was married to a fellow marine officer who peaked out at lieutenant colonel. They were both stationed together at the DFAS center in Kansas City when bother were majors or lieutenant colonels. People referred to them as He-Mutter and She-Mutter to differentiate them. Not to their faces, of course.
