They are and are not what they used to be. They are still steeped in romantic urgency, still fueled by the knowledge that the impending goodbye could be a final farewell. Mothers cry. The flag provides a backdrop. Brides eschew the frills, content with a ring, a kiss, and a document that says so much with so few words....The difference in today's wartime weddings is that now [2001] the bride is just as likely to be in the military as the groom." (PHILADELPHIA INQUIRER) This article relays that, due to wartime circumstances, a number of military personnel are rushing to marry prior to being sent into battle.Summary: NEW WORRY: KIDS WITH BOTH PARENTS IN COMBAT -- This article focuses on "the children at risk of losing both parents to America's war on terrorism. For military families whose children could be orphaned, this new conflict is certainly cause for soul-searching. But it's also a matter of intense interest to the US armed services, where dual-military couples and single parents make up a small but rising share of active-duty troops: Between 1990 and 2000, they increased by almost 3 percent to 120,000." (CHRISTIAN SCIENCE MONITOR)Summary: WHEN MILITARY IS DEPLOYED, FAMILIES AT HOME TRY TO COPE -- "When U.S. military personnel shipped out to defend our country, they left behind spouses, children, bills to pay, lawns to mow and soccer teams to coach," (WICHITA EAGLE) This article focuses on the ways in which families are affected by members leaving for combat duty.
