my husband was in the Army, but he was infantry, lol.
What's it like? it has its bad parts and really good parts. you have medical insurance, you get to shop at the PX-its tax free-you can make some really good friends. deployments SUCK, my dh being infantry was gone training all the time, weeks at a time usually. i was alone a lot but i managed just fine.
Do you have any say in where you go? sometimes you might be given a choice between a few bases, but not always.
Are your husband's gone a lot? depends on what you are doing i think. as is said, infantry=gone a lot, lol. since your dh doesn't want this, he may be home more.
Is it stressful? it can be.
Do they really "take care" of the family? they do, but its not perfect, lol.
