Did you know that since 2001, military divorces have increased by 42 percent? It's seems unfair that the men and women who fight to keep us FREE return home to more troubles on a personal level. So who is going to fight for the marriages of those who fight for us ???
The Art of Marriage OPS campaign
The Art of Marriage OPS campaign was designed to raise awareness about the challenges that military families face when a solider returns home. The Art of Marriage DVD series is provided free of charge to military couples to help strengthen marriages and prevent divorce by providing simple, effective insights for helping couples to cultivate a healthy and happy relationship.

Let's face it, all relationships go through rough times, so here are 5 date night ideas for all couples...
1. DANCE WITH ME
It’s time to get down. Whether it’s salsa, swing or ballroom, there’s more than one way to connect with your spouse on the dance floor. Find a local class near your home and take your relationship to a fun new level.
2. THREE PLUS ONE
Get ready for the road trip of your life. Revisit three of your favorite places where you’ve shared meaningful moments over the course of your relationship. Then, cap off the date by visiting one new place you have never been to but always wanted to go.
3. GROUP COOKOFF
Here’s your chance to team up with your spouse to test out your culinary chops. Take on your friends or a group of friends in the kitchen to see who the top chef really is.
4. INTO THE WILD
Get ready for an adventure. Leave the comfort of your home and launch into the great wide open as you work together to set up camp or explore uncharted territory. There’s no better way to build on your teamwork skills while taking in the beauty of nature.
5. THE INTERVIEW
Go ahead and bust out the camera. You’re about to interview your loved one to learn new insights and make new discoveries. Take turns filming each other while answering meaningful questions in a fun way.
