I did notice that myself. Brody clearly knows about Mike and Jess but has chosen not to confront them directly about it, but he knows.
So when the disabled soldier said Mike had been sleeping with Jess Brody did absolutely nothing (because he already knew) and Mike went for the disabled soldier to shut him up BUT only when Jess saw the commotion and was about to come over did Brody then go for Mike and attack him. I'm not really sure what he was trying to do there.
In one sense he doesn't deem the affair important but on the other hand he needs to show - to his wife/other people? - he's willing to fight for his wife and show he cares (even if he really doesn't?). I'm so mixed up!
