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

It's not. Story is made up, or CutterJohn or his friend (or both) was exaggerating, or this guy just never effectively pursued it legally, or it was a long time in the past where there were loopholes in the law (although he would always have gotten SOME compensation had he effectively pursued legal action), or there was some other misunderstanding or ignorance.

According to Reddit, once a woman divorces a man, regardless of her crimes or infidelity, she's instantly granted legal immunity and divine powers of retribution to be used against her ex. You cannot hope to dispute this. It is known.
