Interview with Chaplain Beach
[…]program on any base? The answer is: the commanding officer. Every commander, regardless of his personal convictions, is responsible for the welfare, including the spiritual welfare, of his personnel.

This means he will want to know and exercise approval or disapproval of programs. The special staff professional who is provided to assist him is the chaplain.

Communicate feelings. Anxiety is normal. Discuss frustrations. Accept that we are all different. Initial discomfort in adjusting doesn’t mean your spouse is unhappy with you or the family. Communicate ahead of your spouse’s return about radical changes in your physical appearance (once a redhead now a blonde). Communicate about changes in discipline of children.

Service Separations
[…]the one thing they overwhelmingly emphasized as being invaluable–aside from their own personal walk with Jesus Christ–was Christian fellowship. Again and again they said, “I couldn’t have made it without my Christian friends and their fellowship.” I wholeheartedly agree. The importance of this cannot be overstated. I don’t think it’s enough just to attend a local church or chapel. You need the close intimate fellowship that only comes from a small group.
