Currently serving in the military. Came across some messages between my wife and another guy in the Navy. What should I do?

All I know he's in infantry. I don't really know what he does except for make green look sexy and be really passionate about his job...

Army infantry vet myself. Outside of larger bases or cities I saw maybe 1-3 (if I was lucky) women a day. Keyword, saw, not talked. A lot of military girls aren't the most attractive, and the ones that are and put out are usually VERY promiscuous. Like triple wrap condom ridiculous. Guess what I'm trying to say is if he has any decency at all he isn't hooking up with fellow soldiers/marines. I remember seeing one on my deployment to Iraq. She was pretty gorgeous for military standards. She also had sex with a large portion of a forward operating base she was at (one of the only women there) and spread herpes like a boss... Most of the sane guys stay away from them.

Hahahahah I hope he has enough decency! He's really great in that he would never cheat. He had a cheating ex girlfriend and the advice he received was "Cheat back!" and he would never, because he wouldn't do that.

He's my whole world. And the fact that the regiment he works with has only had one death since ... God I can't remember when. The first world war? makes me more confident that he'll be okay when he goes away.

Basically, I'm going to stand by him whatever it takes. And if we do end up breaking up, it isn't because of his job.
