No. The explanation for her extraordinary betrayal just doesn't work.

This was a good read.

Well done.

I can't understand why it score so low.

Well told story as the writer build one that stated "he can do better".

Your story is not credible and weak as hell.

You fight for your country but cannot teach a lying and cheating whore nor her kid boyfriend a come to reality lesson. You obviously have never served in the military. You obviously are a weak person.

I read it all, kept waiting for it to get good or better, but it never did.

Wont be having fun in europe if your a boring SPARE

Meh. Not one of the author's beat stories. Pretty flat. She wasn't ever a loving wife apparently. And he just wanted some evidence. Tonally flat.

What a boring story

What? No payback to the bitch or “Freddie”?

HELL of a read. Interesting and engaging with very little, well, really no sex.

Reminder to everyone and anyone who tries cheating of any kind that the consequences only pile up and get way worse.

A good ending if only slightly anticlimactic....

A well written story that should have a 5* rating, BUT the story line was way off, with the characters seeming to be from another novel. Needs a lot of help in the execution of the author's intent, to make it above 2*.

Load of crap.If he wanted a proper marriage would have told her to look for a job in the medical field to avoid a three to eleven shift.Also she can't have wanted a loving marriage otherwise she wouldn't have worked the late shift.

What a wimpy soldierboy! No doubt U giys got screwed over in Afgahnistan and Vietnam! With such winps leading u…what else u expect! The amount of time this O-4 spent just waiting outside her lovers house and being in watch while she was onsde getting fucked is soo sso laughable taht i find it almost sad! Finally after all this reccee and info gathering..what did he do?? Ha ha ha!

A good yarn. I enjoyed it. Note: Civilians are prohibited access to military facilities unless they are contractors on an approved access list; civilians accompanied by an active duty military or dod civilian may at the discretion of local commander, accompany CAC holder if they are family and their new style hologram drivers license shows they are family.

A lot of military info, guess it's on the mark,

A poor picture of the military's preparedness. These guys. upon hearing there was an attack imminent would merely videotape it to prove hay were right. No decisive action taken to prevent the attack. No "taking it to the enemy" here. More like the Brit's dithering in WWll.

Military Service WTF?, get it right, the correct term is Corporate Service (Corporations)... Servicing the whims of the Elite in order to make them wealthier "no ifs buts or maybes"!!!

Just another story about a rather slow witted MC who has trouble getting his act together and get rid of a cheating bitch!!

She was not really broken up at the discovery except for it messed with her time table. She was already gone. Hated service life and was wishing a hardship tour on her husband. Whats next? Oh boy maybe he'll KIA and get the benefits? He was the one playing catch up the whole time.

Sorry, your worst I've read so gar. MC had not a shroud of self-respect

This was a pretty weak story. The main character wasn't particularly likeable in almost any way and seemed really rather ineffectual and lacking in any kind of substance or character. He was just a faceless guy with no real personality. Heck, none of the characters in this story other than the "Villain" (Freddie) seemed to have anything passing for a personality, at least he was an arrogant dweeb with some sort of anti-military opinions. I mean, it's not much, but it's SOMETHING.
