Well I was hoping someone would pick up the ball on this one, but I guess no one can! None of us here are marine wives, nor do we have any marines "around" to pick their brains for this one. We would suggest you try some of the info you'll find at
http://www.militaryhomefront.dod.mil/ - this is a great all purpose web site for stuff like this and will at least get you started. Good Luck to you!
