==Background==
The Military Wives was formed in 2011 by Gareth Malone for the BBC Two television series ''The Choir: Military Wives''. The programme documented Malone's visits to Chivenor Barracks first and then a few months later to Royal Citadel, Plymouth - both in Devon, in which he formed two choirs of wives and partners of British military personnel deployed on active service in the Afghanistan War. In forming the choirs, Malone aimed to raise the women's morale and raise their profile in the public perception.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.garethmalone.com/programmes/military-wives )〕
The cover art features the emblem of a Remembrance poppy on a green background and the logos of the charities benefiting from the sales. It was released in the UK as a single by Decca Records on 19 December 2011, with proceeds going to the Royal British Legion and SSAFA Forces Help〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://bfbs.com/news/afghanistan/military-wives-choir-tipped-top-chart-53687.html )〕
