I have always enjoyed Witt's stories, but especially enjoyed this one and its glimpse of life on 'The Rock' or otherwise known as Okinawa... It was a beautiful glimpse into the island and local culture, and with the military aspect, well, this one was just a winner for me...Also thought it was a great touch bringing in the MC's family elements from the States, and lets you think about the struggles that most all military families must go through, and what brings them together, as well as what might tear them apart. The fact that the MC's were 'seasoned' but not close enough to retirement to do anything about it brought a certain element of angst that worked well in the story.The fraternization side of things just isn't talked about much, and was something I don't think many think about with the repeal of DADT, since many gay military members have had o deal with secretiveness up to now, and still may wonder what repercussions may come their way if they just 'come out'. There is still much that still has to be thought about for future career options, since they were not allowed to be honest up front.This one was a good one.
