Also, (His son lives with us THurs-Mon and his mom Mon-Thurs). My husband is very interested in joining the Army Reserves or the National Guard. We are aware that single parents can not enlist in active duty of any military branch and have heard the reserves are also closing entrance to single parents. This may sound like a stupid question but is he still considered a 'single' parent by their standards even though he is married? If he is still allowed to enlist in the reserves/guard what would have to happen for Basic Training and AIT? Would his son be allowed to continue the normal arrangement? We would obviously prefer this as his son and I have become very close and it is important to his father and I that our relationship continue to grow! Any advice/help would be much appreciated!
