You know you are a Marine wife when...

- You can roll his sleeves better than he can.

-You know to stay off base between 1130-1400, unless you absolutely can't help it

-You know his "last four" better than your own.

-You find yourself up at night doing his MCI's because he has to get up early and needs to rest.

-You get out your ID at Walmart without thinking about it.

-You've said, "Good to go", "Roger that", or "oorah" without noticing.

-It only costs you $25 to have a child

-You've had a dog named "Sargent", "Scout", or "Chesty"

-You've used a crooked-neck flashlight with a red lens during a power outage because it was the only one you can find.

-You think his skivvy short are hot.

-At a distance, you can pick out your husband out of 100 men with the same clothes and haircut.

-You're more "moto" than he is

-You know that "field day" has nothing to do with a field.

-You know the exact day he switches from deserts to woodlands and vice-versa.

-You know the exact measurements of his ribbons and medals on his uniforms.

-You get chills when you hear the Marines Hymn Play.

-You know better than to go to the commissary on or the day after pay day.

-You know how to cut a "high and tight"

-You know what boot bands are and find them all over the house.

-You can pack his sea bag better than he can.

-You know what "motomail" is, and it's your lifeline.
