As had been hinted at, I think that a large number of the domestic problems experienced by service personnel originate because they didn't fully explain to their partners about the nomadic lifestyle that they would probably experience.
I thought I was lucky as my first wife was the daughter of a V Crewchief who was always ranging somewhere. She soon forgot all about her father's wanderings and I soon had a life similar to Wander's, complete with MIL's influence.
