My ex-husband spent some time in the army at Fort Lewis in WA. He said pretty much the same thing you've said, AG, about some of the women in that town, how they knew how much a soldier made, etc., etc. They would wave goodbye to their soldier spouse and head straight for the bar to pick up other men. I feel for you. I know very well how easy it is to NOT see the (obvious) signs. You've got to make some hard decisions...I wish you the best. You don't deserve this treatment. No one does.
