Support for mil

There was a young girl on 'The Voice' last night. She said she had flown two thousand miles to be there from Cyprus. The panel asked if she had been on holiday, 'No' she said 'My husband is in the services and I'm a military wife.'

There was a spontaneous round of applause from the audience. I don't know why but I was surprised to hear the clapping (and very heartened I may add). It could have been a scene from an American show where you would expect that sort of thing. Am I getting old and miserable or do I misread the amount of support the mil has these days?
