Before you sign on to a task or commit to something, you want to do your research. Before joining the Army or becoming an Army spouse, you talk to a recruiter. You also watch movies or shows or Google some points. Or you do something else entirely. You soon discover, after signing that red, white, and blue line, that all of your “research” was bullsh!t. You made assumptions as a civilian about the military, like most do. Even as a spouse, most continue to have those misunderstandings.

We clear up our most commonly heard misconceptions of the Army life. Be sure to send us some of your misconceptions and stories to [email protected] or comment below.
