While They're at War (English)

A military wife who is also a Quaker explains the sacrifices made by spouses of military personnel stationed in war zones. Kristin Henderson gives a thorough tour of military culture, describing how life changes dramatically for a soldier's family in wartime and the ways wives (or husbands) and families support each other. She also suggests what civilians, employers, teachers, and others can do to alleviate some of the stress and difficulties for military families. Henderson believes that in a society in which civilians run the military, they need an understanding of the soldier's lot in order to make important decisions. minimize
