Legal Question in Military Law in Mississippi

Re: Another Officer Enlisted Marriage Question

Once you're married, the idea of fraternization is gone. However, it will be difficult to get stationed together, though it can be done.

Re: Another Officer Enlisted Marriage Question

Technically your relationship could be considered one of fraternization at this point in time. Marriage does not cure prior fraternization. This is not meant to alarm you and so long as the relationship is discreet, no one will likely comment upon it. However, the possibility always exists that a nosy person tries to determine whether a relationship between officer and enlisted existed prior to the marriage (this situation is fairly unlikely, but always possible).

As far as getting stationed together, I agree with Neal, it's possible, but it will be difficult, as you will be working with the assignments teams of two different services.
