Rachelle Jones been married to her Husband Richard for 16 years, and during that time she has been an active duty wife, a civilian wife, and is now a National Guardsman's /and a Fedral Technician's wife. She is currently a SAHM, to a five year old son, and 4 year old daughter. Both children were born during deployments.

When Carla Lois's youngest son, Noah, deployed to Iraq in January 2005, she began an online journal, "Some Soldier's Mom", to write about what it was like to have a child at war. In 2005 and again in 2006, it was voted the "Military Blog of the Year -- Military Parent". In 2006, the powerful story of the August 2005 night when the Army called to tell her that her son had been seriously wounded in Iraq was included in The Blog of War, a book of blog postings by front line American soldiers from Afghanistan and Iraq, edited by Matt Burden (a/k/a Blackfive).

Sarah has been an Army wife for five years now. She met her husband in ROTC when he injured her during a PT soccer game, if you can believe that. Her husband went on to be a 1ID Armor officer during OIF II and then branch detailed to Finance. And then switched branches again to Civil Affairs where he's in Farsi language training. Three branches and five duty stations in five years! Sarah blogs at Trying to Grok and at SpouseBUZZ. She was included in The Blog of War for writing about the day her husband left for Iraq. Until he deploys again, she'll continue to write in typical scatterbrained fashion about everything from partisan politics to knitting a rhinoceros.
