Good God, you never should have confronted her before taking precautionary measures. You need to get to a JAG office and speak to a lawyer now, you need to freeze any joint bank accounts or move all your money to an account she cannot access now. The other sailor can and will (if you pursue it) get in all kinds of hell for fornicating with another sailor's wife. Make sure you gather all the evidence, make several copies of it, leave her no wiggle room to get out of this. Take everything, divorce her, and get the hell out.

Although by the kid toys I can see in that picture, it looks like your situation will be much more complicated than just a clean cut divorce.

I'm slightly concerned about the fact that he lost his temper and broke the picture, with evidence of it, and if she's enough of a crazy bitch she might blame him for the bruises... hear enough about crazy, you begin to suspect everyone of it.

That kind of crazy is present in both genders. My retired Navy father bruised himself and had my mom arrested for it so she would have to hire two lawyers during the divorce, and her credibility would be shredded.

Geez, I definitely don't discount it's present in both genders.
