Ok, this post might come across as a bit harsh, and I dont mean it, but I think you might be in need of some tough love.

You say you dont have any friends? Well...

Make new friends!

You have been there three years. If you havent made any friends, bro that is on you.

Your wife is the breadwinner for your family. She is already doing her part to make this situation work. Now its time for you to step up and do your part. Your wife works 40+ hours a week to keep a roof over your head. In the time you have lived there, have you put in an equivalent amount of effort to improve your personal situation and the situation for your kids? If not you need to reevaluate how you spend your days. Having your wife quit a FEDERAL CIVIL SERVICE position to move across the country for ??? job prospects is straight up a bad move. Im not going to say theres two sides here because there isnt. Its just dumb.

You need to get your ass out there and look for opportunities for yourself and your kids. Their school should have resources for you. If you have a church they will too. Look online for any local clubs or activities to try, even if they are completely new to you. If you cant think of anything else for yourself, look into the VFW or the American Legion. Its a place to start at least.

That all said, I truly wish the best for you and your family. Good luck!
