As for spousal support, that would depend on your income and her income. 5 years isn't exactly a long-term marriage nor is it exactly a short-term marriage. You could end up paying spousal support for a couple of years.

A lawyer in your area, with experience dealing with a military divorce, is a better person to give you an idea of what to expect.

>>>>>>>>> He's in Iraq .



Obviously, any assets and debt acquired during the marriage will have to be split. How it is split depends on the state, in an equitable distribution state, it may not be a 50/50 split. In a community property state, like California, is is split 50/50.

>>>>>>>>> A state's statutes on distribution has no bearing on any AGREEMENT they may make .
