Remind me: what's the term for the GF/spouse back stateside, collecting checks and side pieces while the soldier's deployed?

Tricareatops, Dependapotamous, I’m sure there are a few more

Apparently the current slang is dependa and is focused mostly on the benefits. This one is new to me.

There was a different one I heard as a kid that was focused more on the cheating than the benefits, but I can't remember what that one was.

Jody is the guy who steals your girl while you're deployed

That’s what I was thinking but I felt more strongly that I was wrong.

Poor decisions were made. lol

That one is not ringing a bell either, but I wouldn't be surprised if there have been dozens over the years and in different languages.
