~You bring both cell phone and home phones with you everywhere, including the bathroom, shower and on top of the dryer, so as not to miss a call from your soldier.

"Once the hubs (SPC MOS 19D) graduated BCT and AIT, we PCS'd to Ft.Neato. We had to register our POV, after that his NCO wanted to make sure we knew who our PCMwas and the location of the MTF. We headed to the commissary and PX for some supplies and on the way I received a call from my POC of the FRG about an upcoming meeting. We got home and the hubby had to pack his ACU's and TA-50 (but not his Class A's) because an extended vacation to an exotic "beach" was in his future, but I can't tell you about that because of OPSEC."
