    Tracey Hepner, seated, spouse of Brig. Gen. Tammy Smith, standing, receives her dependent identification card at the U.S. Army Reserve headquarters at Fort Bragg, N.C., Sept. 3, 2013. This is the first day that same-sex spouses of military members are eligible for military benefits, including military identification cards. “It says I am now officially a part of the Army Family,” Hepner said. "I am no longer an outsider, a guest, or a visitor. I am a military spouse.” Smith, from Oakland, Ore., is the U.S. Army Reserve Human Capital Core Enterprise director. Hepner is from Cleveland, Ohio.
