Comments on: A Man in Uniform http://romancerollcall.com/2009/11/17/a-man-in-uniform/ Military Romance Blog Sun, 22 Aug 2010 18:41:04 -0400 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.6 hourly 1 By: Katie Mack http://romancerollcall.com/2009/11/17/a-man-in-uniform/comment-page-1/#comment-7 Katie Mack Wed, 18 Nov 2009 19:04:20 +0000 http://romancerollcall.com/?p=4#comment-7 I think there's the expectation that a man in uniform is strong, dependable, and rock-solid in a crisis. He has to be -- it's his job and people's lives depend on him. He's a man you'd absolutely want in your corner. I agree with Kayelle that I'd love to read about more military heroines (both mom and sis are vets). Actually, I'd love to read about more women in uniform, period -- especially if they're paired with a man in uniform. Now that's a story I could get behind. Congrats on starting the blog!

I'd like to see more female military heroes who have a relationship with a guy in the military. I met my hubby that way! And nothing wrong with a kick-butt heroine and a civilian, either. As a RomVet, an author who served in the Armed Forces, I know personally that being a woman in the military is a life of difficulty and trial beyond normal duty. I hope to read about some of those women soon.
