To revise my previous question, the reasons I do not want her to go is definitely the danger factor, which is why I would rather go. I trust her in terms of being around other men so that does not bother me. Also, I think being away from her for long periods of time just crushes my heart. I would rather somthing happen to me then something happen to her.

Why do either one of you have to join? If you do not feel comfortable with her joining for her safety talk with her about it. I believe it is normal for a husband to want to protect his spouse and good for you for feeling that way. You could also both join and do BMT and training together. There are plans in the Air Force where you will be guaranteed to be stationed together if you are married. Finally, for safety reasons join the USAF, fewer people go to front line battle than the other branches (maybe the USN). Good luck.

trust me I am in the Army if she joined yes she would cheat on you. Dont argue dont say I am wrong I have seen first hand every single women I have served with sleep with other soldiers. When u are married and u go away to be around all these guys it's like a vacation from ur relationship. Men do it all the time to it's just there are alot more men in the Army and a few women. So every women has the chance while every guy does not. Also the danger is nothing 2 getting in your car and driving to the store alot more people are killed or hurt doing that then in Iraq

I completely understand where you are coming from. I think she wants to do this so she can do something for others(not that she never has). Maybe she likes the idea of being needed in a time like this when our country is at war. I think if she wants to go, you should encourage her to. As well she should you. Why not decide to do it together? Do you have children? If not then I think it would be something that you two should discuss and both agree on something. And props to you on the trust thing. That is great. Also on the fact that you would risk your life for her. You are a good man.

Im in the military. Just a piece of advise or suggestion: why dont you both join the military???? if 1 spouse joins & the other doesnt it will be very hard to get used to one being gone alot. if both of you join then the military respects & honors marriage, so they will try to station you together so you can travel together!!!

Why do either of you need to join? It's a decision you should make together. If you tell her you don't want her to join, and give your reasons, she should oblige.However, isn't there more chance of something happening to you, since women aren't in combat? What country are you in? If you're in the US, I'd say both of you should stay out!

Hey, the danger factor really just depends on what kind of job she pursues in the military.

If she wants to join then don't stop her. She will only regret that she never did this when she is older and may blame you for stopping her.

You can't "not let her go." If she wants to go she will.You can't stop her.You may be married to her but you don't have the right to tell her what she can and can't do.

Do you have children? If not, then you should both go.
