single mother, single soldier

An interesting article here about soldiers… our heroine? “Capt. Nissen was a single mom with three kids when she enlisted with the Guard 20 years ago. She needed to support her family and wanted the education benefits the military could give her. Then, she started working full time for the Guard. She was an enlisted soldier for 10 years before getting her officer commission in 1997. Now, she is the Guard’s training administrator.”

I don’t know how women and men do it. How do you leave your family, your children, knowing there’s a chance you might not come back?

Come home safe, all of you.
