Military question ?

Recommended Posts

As others have said, marital status has no bearing on deployment status.

What is true, is that from an official standpoint in terms of pay, benefits, and information, fiance's and girlfriends have no legal standing. Wives, however, get ID cards and all of the benefits: PX, medical care, housing allowance, and the ability to be tied into the family support network.

In blunt, unpleasent terms: if the worst happens, the girlfriend/fiance' won't get the flag, Mom and Dad will.

oh and "that uniform that he gets to wear for the wedding is awesome " :S



so has he already been awarded his Eagle, Globe, and Anchor? the way i understand it, he's going to join after his wedding. can't wear the uniform until it's earned.


Maybe his recruiter gave him "Special permission" to sign on the dotted line.:ph34r:

i may be one of the most de-motivated Marines in the entire Corps, but i still have service pride. no one should wear the uniform i paid for with much sweat and tears without earning it too.

Hi PCR

I agree 100% in the best of times & 110% in the present enviroment.:|

But does that mean we can't crack jokes about the extent that recruiters could go to close a deal.
