View Full Version : Can a Marine Spouse have a career?
06-07-11, 11:46 PM Hi Ladies,  Not sure if this is the right
place to ask my question. I am a poolee getting ready to ship
out to bootcamp in less than a week. I finished my Bachelor's
this year and my girlfriend is getting her master's in
accounting in 3 years. Is it possible for my girlfriend to have
a stable career if we do get married in the future? I am also
planning on becoming an Public Affairs Officer in the future. I

seems like she might not be able to and it's a terrible
disappointment on her part.  Thank you ladies very much. I look
forward to your responses!  Sgt Leprechaun 06-08-11, 04:07 AM
