The Army was discharging her husband, Robert, after he lost his arm and suffered other severe injuries in Iraq, without even gas money to drive his car home.
'I am up here and he's there. That's 1,800 miles away,' she said. 'I had to call his chain of command and scream at them.'
Their reaction she said, was 'very mature.'
'If he feels that way, why is his wife talking for him? Why doesn't he come talk to us himself?' she remembers them asking her.
'Because on some level, he still respects you,' she answered. 'I don't have that problem.'"
