On this day, January 15, 2007, Lieutenant Mark Daily was killed by an IED in Mosul, Iraq. In this episode we sit down with his wife, Snejana Hristova Daily, to recount her journey as a military spouse. She describes how Mark and her first met and what it was like being swept away into a military life after college. We then discuss what it was like for her to learn that her worst fears came true with her husband’s death and how that news was received back home.
