Military Life: When the Men are Gone

The World

Military wife Siobhan Fallon has a new collection of loosely connected short stories that’s been getting rave reviews. It’s called ?You Know When The Men Are Gone.? She explains the truth behind living as a military spouse. Her husband Major K.C. Evans is a graduate of West Point, he’s been married to Siobhan for seven years, and has been deployed to Iraq and Afghanistan three times during their marriage.

Major Evans will be shipped off to work in a foreign area office in Jordan soon, but this time around, Siobhan and their daughter will be joining him.
