I think these sorts of lists and usually stupid and annoying. This one probably is too. Feel free to add your own (good ones ;-)
You might be an Army wife if...
-you can hang any decoration on any type of wall surface. In the world.
-the word "palletize" is part of your lexicon.
-you refer to the Italy house or the Germany house or the Hawaii house etc., but you're not a millionaire, and you've never even owned a house.
-you've ever held your baby on your lap while she tries to touch her dad through the computer screen.
-you wish every theater in America played the national anthem before movies.
-you impulse-shop because it's good for your family. (For those of you who don't know, shopping in an overseas BX is pretty much like Lord of the Flies).
-you think moldy produce in a store is totally normal. (Had to have a 1-2 BX-commissary punch!)
-you instinctively call two places or more "home".
-you have lots of friends, just...none here. Yet.
-your husband wears a colorful hat to work. Every day. And he pays more attention to it than you sometimes. And he runs the risk of other wives making fun of how he wears said hat. And he blames the French for all of this, but apparently he should really be blaming the Basques. So once again we can blame the Spanish...

You have so many different kinds of curtains to fit so many different types of windows for any house in most any country in the world!
When watching Extreme Homemaker on TV, you wish that Ty would just build you a house, anywhere, so that you would just have your own home!
When you have been stationed somewhere for awhile longer than usual, and your kids begin asking when we're moving again?
You've had so many phone numbers and addresses that you can't remember your current one!
Love it!
You should do an "You might be an army brat" one as well. I have #1...You might be an army brat if you just started the 3rd grade at your 5th school. :/
You find packing stickers on household items a year after you move.

Or packing stickers from before you married your husband...
