We know that ANZAC Day is a time to pause and spare a thought for the brave men and women who serve in our defence forces to keep Australia safe, but have you ever thought about what life is like for the military families who get left behind?
The Quicky speaks to two women who have been married to military men for a long time, about the unseen challenges they face every day trying to raise a family while moving constantly, and with one parent away for long periods, often at short notice.
