In many ways, we ask too much of our military people, both members and their spouses. I realize it is a personal choice to pursue such a career and whiners get nowhere, but their sacrifice is monumental never the less. Moving six times in eleven years? Good grief. I moved six times in a thirty eight year civilian federal career, not counting intramural moves to get to a better or different house. I didn't really like it, but my wife hated it.

What is the reason for the military demanding that its officers and men move so frequently? Wouldn't a more stable organization be better? I don't know. Just asking.
