How do we report marriage to the military?

My daughter married her sailor 18 days ago. He had to report to his ship before their marriage license came in so she was not able to get her military ID and the Navy has no copy of their license. How do we get this info to them?How do we report marriage to the military?
She will need a power of attorney from him. He should be able to do this, even aboard ship. He'll have to go to the JAG on the ship and ask to have one drawn up, then fax it to you/her or directly to the Personnel office on base/station.


Once she/they have that, she'll still need to take the marriage certificate with her, as well as other forms of ID (such as driver's license, SS card) that should be all she needs to get a valid military ID. I'd call the nearest base (doesn't have to be Navy) and ask the question. Click below for website with locations, then just google for base name and phone numbers. If nothing else, you can start with base operator and go from there!





You might have to get signed onto base. She or he should contact his unit there and someone should be able/willing to coordinate that. Military usually takes good care of each other, as long as they know there's a problem/issue to deal with.


I hope your daughter knows what she signed on for... Good luck!!!How do we report marriage to the military?
To get a military id I do believe the sponser (her husband) has a form he needs to get. He is the only one who can get it. This is something he should of taken care of before he left. Call his commanding officer if its that important and can't wait till he gets back. He is likely to get in a little trouble for not taken care of it before he left. So I would only do it if its a must do. How long will he be gone for?





My hubby sent me the wrong paper when he went to basic. I had to wait to get my id card till I got the right paper from him. I had to be sponsered onto the base (by someone on base) to have things taken care of. It was a mess.
she may need a power of attorney from him she can then take the power of attorney, marriage license, photo id to the proper office on the base.
we went through this organization called dears or deers but anyway it was on the post where he was stationed you can get on with a day pass from the visitors center...make sure you bring the actual licensce
