It isn't often a husband and wife are assigned to the same military unit, but in this video you get to meet a couple from North Carolina who are both pilots in an Apache helicopter squadron in Iraq.

Prime Minister Gordon Brown has been called to give evidence to the Iraq inquiry - but his hearing will not take place until after the general election.
The delay is to avoid the occasion "being used for political advantage".
Sir John Chilcot's inquiry has also said they will have had public hearings with Tony Blair and his ex-ministers and senior advisers by early February.
They include ex-legal adviser Lord Goldsmith, ex-foreign secretary Jack Straw and Alastair Campbell.
