I can't find it! - Military Moves and Relocation

You ladies were talking the other day about NAMs and COMs, i think that's what it was. And I put on there that I would like to know what that is. I'm sure that someone answered me, but I can't remember where it was to go back and check! SO, if someone could tell me what that means, DB is always so impressed with my new vocabulary I'm building on here. Come to find out, he got capped the other day, and I didn't even know it til I read about it on here!!!

NAM is a Navy Achievement medal
COM is a Commendation medal

Thanks, he thinks his little lady can't understand that stuff. He just told me he got a field promotion, but when I read about getting capped on here, I asked him if was anything like it, and he said that's what it is baby! He was SUPER impressed. I also found out that if we're married at least 10 years, I get half his retirement, even if we're divorced. He wasn't so impressed by that knowledge.
