Navy Spouse's Guide
Naval officers and enlisted personnel undergo extensive training to cope with the special demands of their duties at sea and ashore, but what about their spouses and children? This practical, one-of-a-kind guide fills the gap by helping families navigate the unique challenges of Navy life.

Navy Husband
Rediscover this beloved friends-to-lovers romance from New York Times bestselling author Debbie Macomber. After breaking up with her boyfriend of five years, leaving town, and investing in an ice cream and pizza restaurant, Shana Berrie is ready to start her new life as an independent businesswoman. But when her sister, Ali, is sent to sea as a naval nurse, Shana is left to take care of her nine-year-old niece, Jazmine. And although she is open to challenges, her opinionated niece makes Shana question if she can handle this task alone. Luckily, Commander Adam Kennedy—a family friend of Ali and her late husband, Peter—takes his duties as a godfather very seriously. Shana and Adam help each other in the monumental task of being substitute parents, but Shana doesn’t have any intention of allowing Adam into the new life she built for herself. Contrarily, Jazmine has other plans that involve pushing them to open their hearts to each other and helping her aunt find a navy husband. Previously published.

Military Wives
For as long as there have been armed forces there have been camp followers – the families who move with the military to stay with their men. This book looks at the experiences of just a few of these families, through the eyes of the military wives and their relatives. From the First World War, when many women were fiancées but never wives, through the Second World War and postwar Britain to the present day and twenty-first-century service life, military wives talk about their experiences as never before. What is it really like to be married to a member of Britain's Armed Forces? Can you ever be prepared for the reality that awaits you when you say 'I do' and walk down the aisle? From Big Bertha's booms, rationing and bomb shelters, to military wives choirs, Afghanistan and marathons, this book celebrates that great British heroine, the military wife.
Enlisted and Alone
A memoir of one woman's struggle to adapt to the different military lifestyle of loneliness, patriotism, and being a "married-single parent." It's an account of how love, honor, loyalty, courage, commitment, and resilience helped keep her family together through tough times and marriage to life in Naval Special Warfare.
Going Overboard
In 1999, Sarah was a typical bride-to-be, flustered with wedding details. Then the groom called. “I don’t want you to panic, but I might not be able to come to our wedding....” So began Sarah Smiley’s life as a military wife. As a former Navy brat herself, Sarah knew better than anyone that weddings and funerals—even childbirth!—take a backseat to Uncle Sam. But just as the young, nationally syndicated columnist was getting comfortable with the military wife’s routine, her husband was sent away for an unexpected deployment. What followed was a true test of strength and wit. From getting locked out of the house in cowgirl pajamas to wrestling with the temptation of infidelity, Sarah exposes it all with candor, heart—and knowing humor.

Green Smarties
After 20 years of involvement with the Navy, which ended in the late 1980s, I can identify an aircraft carrier or a submarine; but anything in between is a blur of grey metal with a pointy end and a blunt end. Except for RFA TIDESURGE which, without any qualifications, I was allowed to steer across the South China Sea for five hours in a moment of madness. That is a ship whose shape and size I will always be able to remember. Sadly she no longer exists and has long been sent to a ships' graveyard to be reduced to razor blades. But I have immense pride that for a while I was on the periphery of the Senior Service and shared life with someone involved in the defence of our country, wardroom ru...
