AbstractHistoryArchive Description
Army Wives follows the lives of two childhood friends who marry brothers in the army: one a non-commissioned soldier and the other a Duntroon graduate. Despite the dramatically different paths that the women's lives take, both discover that, as the romance fades, their husbands seem to have less-than-normal sensitivity towards their feelings. Army Wives deals with the difficulties experienced by Australian military families as they attempt to cope with an impersonal insitution, class distinction between the ranks, and everyday social problems such as alcohol abuse.
