perhaps Mrs Bloggs is one of the down to earth 'seen it all, done it all' kind of Army wives who aren't fazed by anything and is actually rather fun to know?
Absolutely. My father was a Flt Sgt and during the 1960s my mother made friends with the wife of an Air Commodore whilst in Halton hospital. They discovered that they had much in common such as raising families and travelling the world as a service wife. The problems they faced during their time as a servicemans wife were pretty much the same. Albeit there were obvious differences in circumstances. They remained firm friends until my mother died over 20 years later.
