� Military Spouses

������ I. Thou shalt not write in ink in thy address book.

������ II. Thou shalt not covet choice assignments of other
������ uniformed branches of service.

������ on a corner)

������ IV. Honor thy Commissary and Exchange for as long as
������ they both shall live.

������ V. Thou shalt not ridicule a local politician, for mighty
������ Senators from local politicians grow.

������ VI. Thou shalt look for the best in every assignment, even
������ though the best may be The World's Biggest Cockroaches
������ or Record Snow in One Month's Time or Most Childhood
������ Diseases Experienced in One Year.

������ VII. Thou shalt remember all thy friends from all thy
������ assignments with greetings at Christmas, for thou never

������ them while enroute to a new duty station.

������ VIII. Be kind and gentle to retired, white-haired Exchange
������ and Commissary customers, because thou too will be a
������ retiree someday.

������ TAD on Moving Day.

������ X. Thou must never arrive at a new assignment and
������ constantly brag about how everything was much better at
������ thy last assignment.
