Hope it’s a wonderful life for you two!

You'll be starting your new life with a bang.😊

It sounds wonderful!💗💗🙏🏼

Are you still considering your dress blues?

Your Dress Blues will contribute to that, quite mightily!

Remember we want pics

The photos will be amazing

Congratulations! I am going out to Phoenix, but not until August. Otherwise I would crash the ceremony

Unfortunately, my adjustments only seem to go in one direction, and it ain't inward!!

Seriously, CONGRATULATIONS on your big event!! Best wishes from a fellow Zoni!

…reg 1020.34H standards? (I had to look up what the Marine equivalent to Air Force reg 3510 is, so blame Google and AI if don’t have the proper numbers.)

If I'm going to wear my Dress Blues, then I'll definitely need to represent the uniform and service properly.

In a television series I have followed, the main male character is a retired Marine who is the proprietor of a bar, and has long shaggy hair. In the final episode of the latest season, he finally marries the female lead while wearing his dress blues but with long hair hanging over his ears and his collar. It looked terrible and really ruined the story line. I figured none of the writers had ever been in the military or they would have known better.

Regardless of branch, specialty, or length of service, I think there is a bond amongst those of us who have served. There are things we understand that those who have not do not.

My husband and I met while in the Air Force - I was a peds nurse practitioner in the nurse corps, he was a pilot. We were next-door neighbors in the BOQ at Yokota AB in Japan. My husband did the full 20. I was active duty for 4, and a reservist for 8. We got married in 1982.

I always enjoy reading your posts, especially the recent ones about your granddaughter and about your new romance, and I’m sure you’ll look like a million bucks on July 4th.

How long were you in?

Military kilt with your dress blues.

From another old vet. Married 39 years and I highly recommend it.

Wish you both smooth sailing.

Congratulations!

Congratulations.

Happy 4TH!

Gave me quite the lift to read it.

Much happiness to you both!

Congratulations! We will need pictures, of course!!!

Peace ☮️

Y'know, some venues will stream it online...may this be a long and happy pairing.

All the best for the future to both yourself and your future wife. Thrilled for both of you.

After all, I like to think we are all extended family to one another.

Congrats, have a beautiful wedding day and a happy ever after.

Hope you have a fun remainder of your courtship.

I’m so happy for you.

I wish you both a beautiful life together.

to be, Dan! In lieu of Champagne

Bon Voyage~💙 ☮️🌻 🕯️🕊️💜

What a neat date for an anniversary, you won't forget it! Much happiness to you both

So happy for the both of you and your families!

I thought of you yesterday MCE. My best to your granddaughter.
Have not seen BossHog in a whole. He and AviationPro are the two military people I have seen around.

I am from a service family myself (not American but regardless). Have a soft spot for the services.

I wish you both all the very best.

I know you can't wait for the big day and wishing you and your SO the best of luck.

Wishing you and your beloved a joyful marriage!

My dad was a marine and so incredibly handsome in his dress blues. Like a movie star. And you will be as well!

You both should only know health and happiness!!

Very happy for you!

Sending best wishes to both of you. Congratulations!

Very glad for you, MCE!

for giving me something wonderful to celebrate that day.

I wish you and your beloved all the joy of the beautiful things made more beautiful when shared, and all the power of overcoming life's setbacks together in the strength that only love can carry.

Congratulations!

Much love coming your way!

I hope your day is wonderful!

Or, if you prefer, OOOO-RAH!!!

And you get fireworks. A great day, congrats.

As my wedding gift to you, let me please suggest you move the date up a week to Saturday June 27th - for astrological reasons.

As Biden would say: No joke! My parents made the mistake of not consulting an astrologer for their wedding date. They picked a bad day - and sure enough, it has not turned out well (though they're still together after 51 years!).

Please consider the change. If a week is too drastic, at least consider Sunday July 5th (or Saturday July 11th).

Either way, I wish you both All the Best!

marriage, half shut afterwards.
