[quote=Anonymous]This is OP. My DH is eligible to retire in 3 years. He will be 55. Most likely we would do this tour and then come back to the States for one more tour before he retires. That would enable us to maximize his "high three" for retirement purposes. I have not regretted one day of my life with DH or with much of our life in the FS. It is not a hard life, but it is hard living. Overall, like the PP who talks about his and his DW's experiences, I pretty much concur. I guess, though, it is just starting to wear on me a little bit at this point. What I cannot stand - and I have seen these - are the FSOs who are just miserable but won't quit and find something else to do. My DH was private sector before joining the FS. Unlike some of his younger colleagues who joined the FS right out of college, he knows that there is a larger life out there in the working world beyond the FS and has never been afraid of being able to find a job elsewhere.
