Secrets from an X Special Forces WIfe......Greenie Beanies and Their Cheatin' Hearts

Yep, I am an ex Special Forces wife. In fact, I still have my awards making me an honorary Green Beret. I went thru the Q course with my ex, helped him study, make major CHA CHING doing bake sales so the guys could each have one of those cool group coins. I played on "NASTY NICK" the obstacle course at Camp McCall; Listened to a man who could barely speak "proper" English(he is American and speaks English, just not proper English) try to congugate verbs in really rotten Spanish; listened to him bitch and moan about how horrible it was in "PINELAND"....Yep I did it all. And had the bruises to prove it. Yep, he was an abuser. I heard alot of the old wives talk about something I had never heard of. The "B" wives. Apparently I was considered an "A" wife. Just as they have A teams and B teams, seems they have several wives as well, maybe not legally, but......these "B" wives are located in other countries, usually poor women with nothing else. They think these strong men wearing those green berets are the best white gringo's they have ever met. Of course, usually, they are not told about the dedicated wives and children on the homefront. Some of these women come to the states in search of these men they have met. The write letters to them, or call them, and when confronted by the A wife, usually have emotional break downs. There are some SF soldiers who actually lead duel lives. They have 2 seperate families. One stateside and one in the country that their group works in. The most horrible thing of all is that the chain of commands are totally aware of this, and may have even done the same things. This is accepted and they all aid one another in covering this behavior up. One may ask WHY?? Why a native from one of these 3rd world countries?? These women are more accepting...of abuse, of cheating, of everything. They will wait on these men hand and foot. WHY?? They are looking for that wonderful military ID card, their pass to the wonderful world of AAFES. (the PX/BX) Then of course, you have your SF "HAGS". These are women who are in search of any man who has a SF tab. Or the special ops hag, they want SF, Seal, Ranger, Delta...whoever. Usually for sex. They try to "EARN" those wonderful SF Group coins. With Sexual Favors. Some of these women are "3 holed qualified" and you can imagine what that one means. UUGGHH Then there are the SF "barracks hags". These are the same women who hang around the barracks and become pass around girls. They all have a turn being her "boyfriend". These girls tend to be locals or foreign nationals who were allowed to enter our military, with the promise of citizenship. I call these women "HOOTCHIE MAMA'S". Many are from the country of Panama, usually from impoverished areas. Most tend to have an education, but refuse to give up their customs when trying to fit into our society. Some of these are the same women who were bussed into our military installations, to "service" our male military members. Most of these women are perfect for the SF soldier. They will quietly accept being phsycially abused. The verbal abuse usually goes over their heads, because it is done in English. And humiliation has always been the norm within their cultures. And they won't tell. They will accept that their men cheat. THEY CAN HAVE THEM!!!! And whose reality check bounced this time?? I think it may be a double bounce.
