She claims he is a combat veteran, yet he is a retired Navy submarine quartermaster, when was the last time we had submarine warfare? 
She also claims combat medic status for herself, fighting the cartels, hand to hand. 

You are a joke nadin, keep it up.

Now, to be fair, I've never fired a shot in anger, but I'm still a life member of the VFW. 

There's a very good reason we call it the "Silent Service" you know.  That being said, what the wives on the boat know about what we do underway or on 'Pac?  Only if some dipshit calls from a liberty port--like one guy on my last boat did from Thailand.

Oh, the shit that flew after that one.  One of the few times I was glad to be a single guy on the boat.

I am not denigrating your service or that of any other Navy serviceman, I just really doubt that nadins hubby qualifies as a combat veteran if he was a QMC on a submarine.

Also, if you are in recruiters school, you are there on orders and are thus non-deployable.  He would have had to have been dropped from school and returned to his unit in order to deploy with them.

My son did the same thing and it worked out very well for him.  

I know a lot of guys that excelled as recruiters.  I always knew, deep down, that I would suck at it, I'm just not a people-person.  I did my 22 years without ever having to do either recruiter or DI duty, but I did more than my fair share of deployments to make up for it.  

Friend of mine did 30 yrs in the Army. never deployed a once. Did both DI & Recruiter. Was probably the only Sergeant Major on Ft.Hood That Didn't deploy for DS1

That some odds Viet Nam - DS1 and no deployments
It is said that branches draw their life from the vine. Each is separate yet all are one as they share one life giving stem . The Bible tells us we are called to a similar union in life, our lives with the life of God. We are incorporated into him; made sharers in his life. Apart from this union we can do nothing.
