My husband is in the Marine Corp and were PCSing in Aug. Can anyone on Marine housing post master bedroom dimensions? I am trying to figure out if my bed will fit! Thanks in advance .  

*Holly* --- 15 years ago -

Is there not a housing website that shows measurements of all the houses? Plus, you never know what kind of housing you are going to get till you get here. 

Angela --- 15 years ago -

No non of the housing sites actually have room dimensions. And I know that we may get different housing , I was kinda hoping more then one person would post measurements so I would have an idea for all houses. =) 

ChiTownGrl --- 15 years ago -

Use the search. There was a post a couple weeks ago about housing sizes. Every place is different so it's going to depend on how many kids you have and what housing they offer you.

I get to live in a wonderful two bedroom one bath house. both bedrooms are 11x11.... The only bathroom is about as big as a nice walk in closet, if your lucky to have a walkin that small.. Our living room is 16x16 Then the dinning room is 8x16 We don't know how many kids you have to judge on what size house you will get..

dependopotamus --- 15 years ago -

You are in that so-called "circle" now.  hummm I'm not sure if i'm cool enough to be in that circle or did my invite get lost??? oh well, i'm on my own... 

ChiTownGrl --- 15 years ago -

Aww I think I'm going to cry... haha Someone posted that site a few weeks back. I saved it so my husband can send it to families he sponsors. 

dependopotamus --- 15 years ago -

I saved it so my husband can send it to families he sponsors.  I just did that, we are sponsoring like a million this summer... 

*Holly* --- 15 years ago -

hummm I'm not sure if i'm cool enough to be in that circle or did my invite get lost??? Nah, I think there is only one member of that club. 

dependopotamus --- 15 years ago -

Nah, I think there is only one member of that club.  OHHHHHHHH I see.... lol 

Angela --- 15 years ago -

Awesome thanks for all the help !! I only have one kido so far so probably getting a 2 bedroom. Is Staff NCO housing different then NCO? 

ChiTownGrl --- 15 years ago -

I only have one kido so far so probably getting a 2 bedroom. Is Staff NCO housing different then NCO?  Yes you only qualify for a 2 bedroom. Staff housing is the same as E1-E5 housing. 

dependopotamus --- 15 years ago -

Is Staff NCO housing different then NCO?  You will live with the NCO's.. Yup one kiddo you will get a two bedroom, unless you get a nice housing person and they bump you up. They wouldn't do that for US. Our housing lady was a B!tch. I wanted to pull my hair out with this lady.. UGH!!!!!!! Our rooms is 11x11 we have a king size bed in there and a dresser, one night stand.. You don't have much room for anything else. It is our furniture that we brought with us.. 

Angela --- 15 years ago -

Thanks again for the info. Depend are you Marine Corps? 

dependopotamus --- 15 years ago -

Depend are you Marine Corps?  Yup Yup, sure am.. :c) 

dependopotamus --- 15 years ago -

Depend are you Marine Corps?  Yup Yup, sure am.. :c)  Let me rephrase that, My husband is in the Marines... LOL I would hate for anyone to take my comment out of Context and consider me a snotty wife.... 

dependopotamus --- 15 years ago -

You need at least 10 more.  Can I count my dog as a child? If so then I have two kids, a little boy, and a girl dog. HOLY HELL i rate a three bedroom then.. Maybe she'll sleep in her own bed instead of mine.. I'm going first thing monday to demand a bigger house. LOL i'll pin my husband's rank on my shirt.. think that will work? 

dependopotamus --- 15 years ago -

No, b!tches always got to be on the bed. God knows mine is.  Our other girl never wanted to be in bed with us, she slept in the wash room, with the door open on her own bed. This one must think she is a princess or something.. LOL Oh well i can deal with it..

I only have one kido so far so probably getting a 2 bedroom. Is Staff NCO housing different then NCO? Yes you only qualify for a 2 bedroom. Staff housing is the same as E1-E5 housing. Depends on your husband's rank. AF doesn't consider an E6 as Staff NCO like the Marines do. 

Loved living in Oki --- 15 years ago -

No, b!tches always got to be on the bed. Yes. 

ChiTownGrl --- 15 years ago -

Depends on your husband's rank. AF doesn't consider an E6 as Staff NCO like the Marines do.  Oh ok. I thought housing here was only separated between enlisted and officer. I know in my friend's tower they made the 7th-9th floors for Gunny and above and made my friend move down a floor because her husband is SSgt. 

dependopotamus --- 15 years ago -

separated between enlisted and officer Not on Courtney it isn't, There is an Officer that lives in the next little duplex over.They have no kids and living with Enlisted.Talk about a wife that is pist she wears his rank with PRIDE. humm maybe that is where i learned i from. I shouldn't hang out with her anymore.. I should hang out with the 19 year olds enlisted spouses. 

dependopotamus --- 15 years ago -

made my friend move down a floor because her husband is SSgt. Thats just stupid, SSgt is SNCO... UGH air force.. 

Loved living in Oki --- 15 years ago -

I thought housing here was only separated between enlisted and officer They have that, too. From what I understand housing is "separated" as E1-E6, E7-E9 and then officers. 

dependopotamus --- 15 years ago -

They have that, too. From what I understand housing is "separated" as E1-E6, E7-E9 and then officers.  I thought that too, until i met this lady. Then she kept going on and on about being an officers wife, and having to live among US enlisted.. *rolls eyes* So yeah.. She is stuck with the US lower people. There's not a lot of housing up here on courtney, they accepted the house.. Probably wasn't told she was gonna live among us...

I thought that too, until i met this lady That's why I used the quotation marks. :-)
