Adventures of an Air Force Wife by Becky Corwin-Adams is a rare and wonderful look at military life in the 70's.The author gives us a look into her life as an Air Force wife and the sometimes harsh reality that befalls many people. Having to move 1400 miles away at the young and tender age of 18 would be hard on any young couple. Throw in the cold and snow of the Dakota's and not much money or living pay check to pay check and you have a very smooth flowing and quiet read.There are moments that are quite funny. I enjoyed hearing about the car, the backwards transmission the fire and leaving it a block away when it was traded in for a new one. Their are other wonderful times and I also enjoyed the many pictures that are throughout the book.Coming from Idaho I related with the cold climate car heaters and freezing temperatures where children are so bundled you can't see their Halloween costumes.I hope to one day go visit Minot North Dakota in the summer of course and maybe in my 1965 mustang (favorite car.5 stars for a lovely book and the memories it brought back for me.
