Something a bit different

[midcan5]

Every person who has served knows how hard military service can be on spouses. Constant transfers or remote assignments can be a real burden. We are a family who make every effort to support made here, so I thought I'd share this information. If you have other sources of information, please add to it.

American Handmade, Handbags Made By Military Spouses, Canvas & Leather

"What began as two Military Spouses in a small attic, armed with a big idea, one sewing machine and a little bit of canvas, has grown into a bold + achievable mission shared by many: to inspire, engage and empower. The R. Riveter movement captures the humble and courageous spirit of Rosie the Riveter and channels it into every American Handmade purse and handbag we produce."

Not a lot of military spouses probably have $250 to spend on a purse.

The unintended consequence of abolishing the draft is that civilian Soldiers with families end up deployed into harms way. I don't have an answer except to quote legendary Marine General Lewis "Chesty" Puller "if the Marines wanted you to have a wife they would have issued you one".
