Can retirement earned prior to marriage be taken in divorce since I paid 3 out of 33 years to social security while married?

The answer to your question depends on what state you live in. If you live in Georgia, then a divorce must address an equitable division of marital property. Marital property is generally that property which was acquired during the course of the marriage. Obviously one asset may have a marital portion and a nonmarital portion. Your situation will have to be resolved either by agreement or by trial.

Is she entitled to any of my earnings while deployed?

As long as you're married to her you're under a mutual duty of support. Presumably you're drawing BAH at the married/with dependent rate, so the bare minimum the Air Force expects you to send her is the difference between the married/with dependent rate and the single rate. If your marital status is getting you more money than you're sending her, relax and bank the profit, and don't rock the boat too hard an argument could be made that you should be sending her the whole BAH since presumably you don't have any housing expense of your own while deployed. On the other hand, if she's actually costing you more money than she's gaining you, or for other reasons you're eager to get a divorce or annulment, you don't have to be on the ground in Texas to file and get the 60-day clock turning.
