The younger soldier (husband) comes from a rich family. His mom says “your rich friend” when talking to the brother at the wedding. In episode 2 the husband says to her brother something like - “no offense but part of you is still a kid from the sticks, I know you’re all enamored when you’re in the same room as a 3 star but when I was a kid we had CIA directors at our dinner table begging us for crumbs. I know how these decisions are made”. So he obviously comes from a family with a lot of means and power. All that said, I find it funny he comes from those kinds of means and is a delta operator, but is still totally oblivious his wife works for the cia.

I was going to say. If he was just a Westpoint grad serving as a high ranking civilian officer, then maybe. But for him to be an actual soldier is completely unrealistic. This entire show feels like Apple just has money to waste and is throwing it at anyone who is willing to take it. 200 Billion in overseas cash reserves. They need to prove the are actually losing money so the IRS will leave them alone.
