[QUOTE="fenskebl, post: 1624137, member: 629262"] Welcome to the fold hun. I will try to help a little if I can. One thing I should start with is that you will not get any benefits being the fiance. Not until you are legally married will you get an I.D. card to get on base, be able to shop at the commissary, etc. You should be able to get on a base near you as long as you are with someone who has an I.D. card. With him being at basic training for 8 weeks, it's pretty intensive. He will be up to his eyes in everything military and will not really have time to do anything else. They do allow phone calls and things of that nature but they may be sporadic at best. Letter writing is the best thing during that time. On the subject of having permission to marry, the saying in the military is that if the wanted them to have a family they would have issued him one. The military knows this is not true. Family is a big part moral and moral is a big part of them being good airmen. Just be up for anything. The only thing he would need permission for is if he is going to take a day off to get married but he does not need permission from anyone to get married. Just be strong hun. Welcome to the family.
