Synopsis: Life as an army spouse is never dull, especially for the four women and one man who are the center of this dramatic series from “Grey’s Anatomy” executive producer Mark Gordon. They’ll face all sorts of challenges in trying to fit in, stay connected with their soldier spouses, and abide by strict military’s traditions. These characters will form an unlikely alliance as they help one another through the unthinkable and protect each other’s darkest secrets. There’s Claudia Joy Holden (the strong and respected wife), Denise Sherwood (the devoted homemaker with a troubled teen), Pamela Moran (a woman struggling to keep her family from financial doom), Roxy LeBlanc (a mom who married a solder after a four-day courtship) and Roland Brown (a psychiatrist whose traumatized wife just returned from serving in Afghanistan.) They may come from different places but these characters create unbreakable bonds. And each of them knows one thing for sure: The Army has its code. The wives have their own.
