Okay, Ive read enough of these threads to know whats going to happen, Im going to ask a question and most of you are going to reply with "Dont do that! Thats stupid! Wait until you're out, do this, do that, etc etc"
I already know, which is why I'm not married yet, but I have a question. I'm fully aware the Corps sends you where it wants you, not where is most convenient, but I'm still going to ask about what usually happens.
Lets suppose two Marines, who'd been in the fleet over a year and both were NCOs, got married, one was stationed in Okinawa and the other stationed in the US...oh lets pretend and say it was Hawaii. :cool:
What are the odds of them getting stationed together? How would they go about at least trying? And what would the Corps most likely do? Send both Marines CONUS or send the one to Hawaii? Im assuming they wouldnt send the one from Hawaii to Japan...
I've heard all the "You stupid boot!" stories, and even laughed at them. If this even does happen, it won't be until late '09, its not like Im flying to Vegas this weekend. I'm not going to rush into anything, and if waiting till I'm no longer a "Boot" is what I have to do, while that sucks, at least I won't be potentially screwing up my life.
