Marines have developed many reputations around the nation over the years. They are fierce warriors, stalwart citizens, and renown lovers. That last point has led to many broken hearts, divorcees and single moms across the land.
Marines are passionate people of fiery hearts and souls. Relationships are hard, and the things that make Marines great warriors aren’t necessarily the things that make great partners for more than a weekend.
It’s no wonder the divorce rate in the Marine Corps is the highest of all the military branches (and higher than the national average). Then again, a lot of this can probably be chalked up to age. Marines at their peak are around 18-24 years old, which is about the same age as your average frat-guy.
As the old adage goes: if the Corps wanted you to have a wife, they would have issued you one.
