So, your husband/boyfriend signed up to be in the USMC (United Stated Marine Corps). Now what?
Surround yourself with supportive people:
○ Search Facebook for support pages for families, friends and S/Os (Significant Others). No one will understand better than they about what you're going through.
○ This is also the best place to get support
○ Marine Family Network is also a great place for information, but I wouldn't recommend going there solely for support.
○ Try to find local Marine support groups to gain additional support
Before he leaves:
○ Take lots of pictures together
○ Have him make a video of himself so you can hear his voice
○ Keep some shirts that still smell like him
○ Give him a Bible and write a motivational note inside/highlight motivational verses
○ Stay Positive!!!
