TV show description:
This series is set at the Army Post of Fort Marshall, in Charleston, South Carolina. The lives and dramas of Roxy LeBlanc (Sally Pressman), Claudia Joy Holden (Kim Delaney), Denise Sherwood (Catherine Bell), Roland Burton (Sterling K. Brown) and Pamela Moran (Brigid Brannagh) all intertwine as they deal with being a spouse of a member serving in the Army.

Claudia is the wife to Col. Michael Holden (Brian McNamara) and has just arrived at Fort Marshall, a place where soldiers are either about to be shipped off to Iraq or are returning home from there.

She meets and befriends Denise, who has grown up on military bases her entire life. Denise was swept away by Major Frank Sherwood (Terry Serpico), but their recent relationship has become anything but easy.

In contrast, ex-cocktail waitress Roxy’s relationship to PFC Trevor LeBlanc (Drew Fuller) has come both easily and quickly as the two marry after knowing each other for only five days.

“Army husband” Roland is struggling both as a husband and a psychiatrist in trying to help his wife, Joan (Wendy Davis), cope with post-traumatic stress disorder after her tour of duty in Afghanistan.

And as any military family knows, sacrifice is often required, like in the home of former Boston police officer Pamela Moran (Brigid Branagh). She’s becoming a surrogate mother to enable both her and Delta Force husband Chase Moran (Jeremy Davidson) to claim extra benefits.

Based on the memoir Under the Sabres: The Unwritten Code of Army Wives by Tanya Biank, this drama details the battles occurring on the home front. For these women and men, being all you can be, sometimes costs everything.

I am a retired Army Wife myself and found that from the very first episode of “Army Wives” that this was going to be a very informative shows to people who don’t know a lot about military spouses. It is a career just like spouse’s military career. The episodes have covered a wide variety of topics covering both officers and enlisted personnel and their families. PLEASE renew this very valuable series in a time when every one should be made aware of our military and the issues they fact particularly in war time.
Thanks and God Bless America.

I love this show and watch it with my father, sister, and niece. It is very informative and helps us connect to what is happening to so many families right now. My father served before I was born and I came very close to being an Army wife; we discuss what the military was like then compared to now. It really helps me learn about the life my parents had living in a boxcar home on base. My dad really opens up about their life watching this show and these are stories we may not hear without this show triggering his memories especially since mom passed away.

when is Army Wives coming back on? I just love this show. Could you make this a year long show, instead of a few weeks at a time?
