Raised as an Army brat, Angie Ricketts thought she knew what she was in for when she eloped with Darrinthen an infantry lieutenanton the eve of his deployment to Somalia. Since that time, Darrin, now a colonel, has been deployed eight times, serving four tours in Iraq and Afghanistan. And Ricketts, has lived every one of those deployments intimatelydistant enough to survive the years spent apart from her husband, but close enough to share a common purpose and a lifestyle they both love.With humor, candor, and a brazen attitude, Ricketts pulls back the curtain on a subculture many readers know, but few ever will experience. Counter to the dramatized snap shot seen on Lifetimes Army Wives, Ricketts digs into the personalities and posturing that officers wives must survive dailywhether navigating a social event on post, suffering through a husbands prolonged deployment or reacting to a close friends death in combat. At its core, No Mans War is a story of sisterhood and survival. As Ricketts states: We tread those treacherous waters together. Do we sometimes shove each others heads under water for a few seconds? Maybe even on purpose? Of course. Are we sometimes dragged underwater ourselves by the undertow created by all of us struggling together too closely? Without a doubt. But we never let each other drown. Our buoyancy is our survival.
