 Dear Casey, my husband and I are stationed overseas. He's in the U.S. Navy and presently on board a ship. Like many new couples, we've had our share of marital problems. We both made stupid mistakes and let the odds pile up against us. There weren't many people, often including us, who thought we'd make it. A couple of times I'd easily have given up, but my determined husband wouldn't. He was the one who held us together.
