He's told me about some of those jokes they pull, and pretty sure having a woman around is going to put a stop to farting in each other's faces and talking about their junk. <br /><br />I've met a few male spouses here and there, but not in my husband's unit, so I really don't know how it is MooAtU2https://www.blogger.com/profile/03420593916670340188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2677241611426645731.post-73900112095527686642011-02-08T12:31:06.904-06:002011-02-08T12:31:06.904-06:00Spike's current (about to be past) unit has a ...Spike's current (about to be past) unit has a good mix of male and female soldiers.

I definitely get a few comments from the wives when they learn I'm Army Reserve. It will be soooooo interesting when he comes to my unit's events as MY spouse! I'll have to get him to write a post for us on the matter...Mrs. Fhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15783406187160960344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2677241611426645731.post-43232674412913694242011-02-07T11:42:44.127-06:002011-02-07T11:42:44.127-06:00I'm afraid I don't have much input other t...I'm afraid I don't have much input other than to say that I can relate. T is infantry, so his unit is all men. I've had people try to gently correct me when I say "the men" or things of that nature and it annoys me because I'm not doing it to be a jerk or "un-PC".

At company family events I was the only woman who wasn't a spouse (well, until I got married to another soldier)and it took a little longer to make friends with the wives, because their husbands hadn't served with women before but I think that you'll have an easier time KrysTroshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05588686892682656818noreply@blogger.com
