State Department- not the Army.

If you are already married, that might be a problem. Had you applied for a fiance visa back when, you might have saved your feelings. Now, it reads like you have a wife living in another country.
Get a lawyer. Gather the information requested. Answer any questions honestly. You might get her in. But, if she has a rap sheet and those State officials find out, I hope you have a good lawyer.
I paid 800 bucks. It was worth every dime.
Good luck.

So all the folks saying State Department or JAG, they are wrong. It is USCIS ran by department of homeland security. https://www.uscis.gov/family/family-us-citizens/spouse/bringing-spouses-live-united-states-permanent-residents

Mine came on fiancé visa and really the process is not that hard. All of the forms have instruction sheets and if you can fill out military forms with ease, you can do these without a lawyer. Now JAG or a paralegal might be willing to help you but really if you follow the instructions, it is easy.

Bringing Spouses to Live in the United States as Permanent Residents

In order to bring your spouse (husband or wife) to live in the United States as a green card holder (permanent resident), you must be either a U.S. citizen or green card holder.
