And you thought you were a civilian......
When Dad's away, Mom's the Commanding Officer
When Dad's home, Mom's the Executive Officer,
coordinating and executing actions for the Command
Team
Keeping track of the kids, she's the S-1
Collecting the neighborhood news, and relaying it to
Dad, she's the S-2
Making plans for the entire family and training the
kids, she's the S-3
Stocking food and supplies for the family, she's the
S-4
She answers all the family correspondence and makes
appointments for Dad, that makes her the Adjutant.
Worrying about the family budget makes her the
Comptroller
Paying the bills, and accounting to Dad for the
paychecks makes her Disbursing
Looking for a new place to live when we move, she's
like Billeting
Assigning us chores to do, getting us fed, bathed, and
put to bed, she's our First Sergeant.
Serving the food and doing dishes, she's the Mess
Hall.
Carrying small children, she's ammunition handler.
Driving the family to all our appointments, she's the
duty driver
Looking like a queen when she goes out with Dad, she's
a Military Man's Lady.
Gosh, Mom's the whole darn Military
