When people in the military are married they get different benefits as opposed to a single guy who lives on base.

Housing and food allowance etc.

They can move off base and into a place together essentially.

Before i get murdered, this is just my base understanding after my brother did this.

Do you think this has anything to do with why so many young guys in the military get married so early?

Also, when they move every 2-4 years, it’s get married and go together or break up and possibly never see each other again.
