In 1994, I was NEO'd out of GTMO with all the other dependents. I can honestly say that my experiences as a military spouse were critical for building strengths I still use today.Response by Lt Col Private RallyPoint Member made Jan 18 at 2014 5:18 PM2014-01-18T17:18:39-05:002014-01-18T17:18:39-05:00Lt Col Luis A.
