Listen to your dad; he knows whereof he speaks. Sad truth is, not being a distraction will be a full time and difficult job. There's a lot to "joining the military" as a spouse that will be virtually impossible without your husband's active involvement/participation. You will also have to make a lot of decisions in a hurry and many of them will be made by yourself - easy ones like where to live, hard ones like when to start a family. Forewarned is forearmed. Good luck.

A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear.
~ Marcus Tullius Cicero (42B.C)
