Will my orders change if I get married on leave ?

Reclass to 88m and I got stationed at Camp Casey South Korea. I wanted to get married after I graduated but now going over seas complicated things. My GF is active duty waiting on my orders to PCS with me once married. If I get married on leave after graduation what’s the likely hood of her coming to Korea with me?

No, they won't. Best case you can hope for is Command Sponsorship and bring the spouse forward. But I don't even know if Casey allows families.

Korea is unaccompanied, your GF will not get orders to join you. But you can get orders to join her after Korea

Years ago I remember several couples, both on active duty who station in Korea together at different bases!

Nope, you are headed to Casey by yourself. Dual military is a rough road and despite the regs that say otherwise, assignment managers do not give a shit you are dual military. Need to accept that now and even if you are co-located, you may have an hour drive to work because your duty stations are near each other and you live in the middle. Happens a lot. I have seen successful marriages last but not many. Sorry to be all gloom but I am honest.

I think: Although you can ask to be escorted, this is not the case by default. https://food-le.com

Foodle is an ideal puzzle game for chefs and food lovers. If you're too familiar with the popular boring word puzzle game, this is the game that you should try.

You need to be married before getting orders, especially to Korea. If you want to change orders to bring your wife you will need to talk to your unit in Korea to get yourself in the MACP. I don’t think they send families to Casey, but being both military you might depending on her MOS and if you have kids. But getting orders changed just doesn’t happen automatically when you get married or divorced.
