update

 Official Army determination: Husband, due to injury, is no longer fit to be an active duty soldier. Which means he'll seen be a disabled vet at the ripe old age of 30-something. (this is something we've known for months, but now it's chiseled in stone)
 What does this mean?

Let's pretend, for a moment, that there are only two ways this whole thing could turn out (even though I giggle at how utterly ridiculous such an assumption would be):
1) We get a percentage we can live with, so we accept it, sign on the dotted line, and get some orders cut for separation from the Army.  This will take anywhere from 2-5 months, depending on how long it takes to cut orders.
2) We don't get a percentage we like, so we appeal.  Then we get out of here in a year or so.

Now, there are a lot of complicating factors going into this decision and subsequent decisions.  Where we move and when is largely determined by how good of a job Man can get, taking into consideration my desire to attend school. 

More news as it becomes available.
