In the pilot episode of Army Wives, "A Tribe is Born," Roxy impetuously decides to marry Pfc. Trevor LeBlanc and moves with her two kids to his Army post, fictitious Fort Marshall in Charleston, South Carolina. Floundering in her new life as an Army wife, she takes a job bartending at a local joint known for being a Jody bar (where civilian men go to hit on enlisted men's wives). While on the post, Roxy meets Claudia Joy Holden, who believes that her husband Col. Michael Holden's promotion didn't come through because of base politics. Another Army wife, Pamela Moran, is heavily pregnant with twins - she's secretly acting as a surrogate to get her family out of debt. Meanwhile, psychiatrist Roland Burton is trying to reconnect with his wife, Lt. Col. Joan Burton, who has just returned from Afghanistan. Then there's Denise Sherwood, who is dealing with her son Jeremy's anger-management issues as her strict husband, Maj. Frank Sherwood, is about to be deployed. The unlikely group bonds when Pamela unexpectedly goes into labor at Claudia Joy's wives' tea party and subsequently gives birth on the pool table in the bar where Roxy works. Not wanting everyone to know her family's dire financial situation, Pamela relies on these new friends to keep her surrogacy from being exposed.
As the season progresses, the women and man all become great friends. They go on to face things such as deployments, abuse, hostage situations, adultery and the viscious rumors that suround them. The conclusion of the first season leaves you wanting more. A not so loved character leaves her husband and meets her love at the "Hump Bar" and the group of friends are gathered there, the womans husband enters the bar with bombs strapped to his chest. As Claudia Joy's daughter follows behind the man and that is where the season ends.
