Now he faces the need to get housing and a civilian job that provides enough income to support himself, his wife, and their two children. While he has been away, his wife and children have lived with her parents, but now Frank and his wife would like to have their own home.

Frank has a high school diploma but has not pursued any education beyond that. Before entering the military, he drove a florist delivery truck.
