Characters

Keith Creeger is a disgruntled bro-vet in his fifties who found a home in the army at seventeen and was raised by Uncle Sam. He’s a combat engineer veteran of the Cold and Gulf wars and was honorably discharged as a Sergeant/E-5 after ten years. To get his respect you have to be one of his brothers-in-arms and even though he tried to transition into the civilian world he remains dysfunctional.

Carmelita Kolinski-Creeger is Keith’s wife of over three decades. When they met she was a KGB sleeper agent working as a stripper off-post who dreamed of BAQ and CHAMPUS. She spent some time as a barracks ho before they realized they were in love and got married. As the wife of an enlisted soldier, she was jealous of officer wives but got over this after giving birth to her first child. Her long marriage to Keith has made her more than a little crazy.
