Are your spouses on RallyPoint? Do you wish they were? Why or why not?

No, I can talk to her any time I like. If I have to communicate with my wife over the internet I think that would be all the proof I need my marriage was pretty much toast.

Mine is not. The only aspect of the Army she wishes to be a part of is being married to me. And she truly looks forward to my retirement.

No my spouse is not on RallyPoint. I see no reason for her to be since she is not military and wouldn't understand half the conversations that military members have between each other. I don't wish or not wish my wife to be a part of this community. She's a grown adult and is capable of making her own decisions in life.

Kanika Misra If I had one, I could not think of a single reason why she would need to be on rally point

Kanika Misra, although my wife was a Navy brat and for 16+ years of our married lives, I was in the USAR, her interest in participating in a site such as RP is negligible to the point of immeasurable. By no means is she insensitive to military personnel, but spending time on a military website would simply be of no value to her.

My spouse and I were married just 29 days before my discharge. Her ex was in the Navy dor one hitch during their marriage. That was over 42 years ago.

I don't think she wants to be on RP.

No. I'd like this to be my place to talk with my brothers and sisters without her having to hear our conversations. Besides... I'm home and we can talk any time we want.

It wouldn't bother me. My spouse is a retired CG MCPO also. I recruited my USAF son to be a member so he is on here too.

No thanks you. Spouses come and go, but a DD 214 is for life.
