Army Wives: Dating Woes and More Lawsuits

Last night’s episode I felt was only so-so really. Most of the show dealt with the return of Harry Hamlin as Claudia Joy’s law professor and them dealing with another lawsuit involving the army. This time it involved a single mother who went AWAL before deployment in an attempt to find someone in her hometown to care for her young daughter. It was a tough case, the woman loved the army and it was her life and dream, but as she put it she couldn’t show up on the tarmac with her kid. However as the Army sees it, she had ample time to make preparations. Harry Hamlin wanted her to go for a court marshall so they could have a trial to try and save her career and get her child back, who was in foster care. However that would take months, and Claudia Joy knew that she would probably not win. She’d go to jail and her child put up for adoption. In the end the woman was given a discharge and reunited with her child.

I wasn’t a fan of this case or story. On one hand I felt for the woman a lot, what was she supposed to do with her kid? On the other, she was in the army, she had been in the army, she knew the rules and how it worked. Did she think she was going to get special treatment? There was no winner at the end either, while she didn’t go to jail or lose her kid, she lost the only career she ever wanted. She did put it best, she had her daughter and she can find a new dream.

Pamela attempted to go on a date with a divorced dad of one of Katie’s friends, but he got way too drunk and cried about wanting his ex-wife back. Meanwhile over in Afganistan, Jeremy met a nurse who was part of a support group over there that he took a liking too.

I definitely liked the story with Jeremy and the nurse. However I feel like one shouldn’t get attached cause one of them might not make it till the end of the season.

Only three episodes remain in the season. Sniff . . . we got spoiled last year as the season went into September.
