So I thought about something. There is so much information out there but most of it is in english. Not everybodies english is good enough to actually understand. Most German girls don't have a clue about the military, don't know what the abbreviations like MOS stands for and so on and on and on. Sure there are a lot of forums out there but most of them are in english. Than you have the German Spouses but it is just another forum and a lot of the information is in english as well.
So I decided to write a little guide in German. I did a lot of research, I am going through the whole process of getting married right now. Talk to so many people, read the complete idiot guide, made research on the websites, I am with Soldiers Angels for more than four years so I also know of how to support soldiers during their deployment and can explain lots of abbreviations, work with Soldiers that go through PTSD etc.
So why not sharing my knowledge? I can give a different perspective on certain things and mybe somebody will appreciate to have a german explanation to what it takes to be a military spouse.
What ya'll think about that? Should I include it in here or keep all that in an extra blog? I am not sure if I have enough time to keep two blogs running...

Quasi suggested to have a "Weekly Tip" instead of having a second blog. I have to think through all this.

I go with the weekly tip or whenever something comes to your mind, but don't you think that when german girls actually are marrying english speaking guys/men then they proved their english is def. good enough?
Yeah, it should be good enough but that is not always the case. There are spouses that don't speak any english at all because the husband speaks both languages. Or their english is not good enough. And sometimes it just would be nice to have it in your own language.
