Why Reserve and National Guard Members Thrive at Two Marines Moving

A Civilian Job That Actually Fits Part‑Time Service

Reserve and National Guard members live a unique life.

One foot in uniform.
One foot in the civilian world.
Always balancing drill weekends, annual training, schools, mobilizations, and real‑world responsibilities.

Most civilian employers say they “support” Reserve and Guard service.

Very few actually understand it.

Two Marines Moving does.


Built by Someone Who Lived Reserve Life

This isn’t corporate policy language.

The founder of Two Marines Moving was a Marine Reservist.

He:

  • Served in the Marine Corps Reserve (USMCR)
  • Moved back and forth between active duty and reserve status for six years
  • Accumulated three full years of active‑duty time during a single Reserve contract
  • Attended schools, additional assignments, and periods of TAD along the way

He lived:

  • Drill weekends
  • Annual Training
  • Short‑notice orders
  • Civilian job conflicts
  • The constant balancing act of Reserve life

That experience directly shaped how Two Marines Moving treats Reserve and Guard members today.

They need predictability with flexibility.
