Josh's Wife, tell your husband to stay focused on the future. Some things are not going to go as planed and you just have to learn to 'roll with it'. I love being a Navy Wife. I'm glad my husband joined the navy even with all the stress and worry that goes with it. You have to take the bad with the good. This experience has transformed my husband in to someone I love 10 times more! There is no regret here. When my husband joined the navy it was like a fresh new start for us.

Hey Josh's Wife, I know exactly how you feel, me and my husband are only 19 and it was a lot for us to handle too but we've been doing really well. I live in the forrest pointe apartments in Lake Bluff, it's even closer to the base and very military friendly, they have a "stars and stripes" military program. They are really great, and my husbands BAH covers it all plus we get the left over money in our pocket! It's going to be hard but very rewarding at the same time. It'll really make ya'll love and appreciate each other even more. We are glad that he went into the Navy. I wish you the best, and message me if ya ever want to talk.
-Amanda
