GO1 was a little out of hand when it came to stuff like dual mil ina deployed location. I'm glad they somewhat came to their senses about it. I've seen someone get an Article 15 for having their wife in their dorm room. They've been married for like 7 years.

I was about to say, Bagram had that going on for years. At least since 06. I knew a few dual mil that were bunking together. Kinda cool I guess for the married folk... But doesnt it take away from the whole single while deployed mentality?

I AGREE, a good way to cause a soldier to do something he wouldn't usually do. way to make a command decision co.

well they had to do something cause the military divorce rate was getting out of hand on both sides, dual & single military marriages.

My first tour in Iraq there was a married couple in the Fire Station. She was a bitch so it really didn't bother me..

they shouldn't deploy married couples at the same time in my opinion anyways...atleast not if they are parents....which I saw this one couple did. Good idea...take a chance of orphaning your kids.
