Hi there - sorry I haven't come by your thread, for as much as you are at mine wink

*If/when the time comes for D - let me know - in my job, I know all about the USFSPA (uniformed services former spouse protection act). Basically you have to been married for at least 10 years, while the member served 10 years of creditable military service. Then it's up to how it is written in the decree (and the language must be VERY VERY VERY specific), but you can be awarded up to 50% of his disposable retired pay. No, you cannot get anything from disability pay from the VA. Once the divorce is final, YOU must make application.

I really like the article about marriage and homes. How funny that my house has some structural problems. LOL (gotta laugh or I just might cry wink )

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.
