This work had as main objective to investigate the particular gifts of the marital senior military Brazilian Air Force , the perspective of the wives . This is a qualitative research whose corpus six interviews with military spouses . The interviews were analyzed according to the technique of thematic content analysis . We conclude that yes there are peculiarities in this family setting . We observed that the formation process of the couple , distance from family and hometown, accompanied by emotional pressure experienced in the barracks , leading the military to raise a family too early . We realize that the transition from conjugal to parenthood is experienced in the context of lack of planning and support from family of origin , as often couples find themselves in another city . The values ​​assimilated in the schools of military and reinforced daily in -service training are transported into the family, reflecting directly on couple relationships and family dynamics . However , we found that the discipline was seen by some wives as a positive aspect , while the hierarchy was perceived as something negative militarism . We also observed that the roles played within the family reflect a clearly defined division of labor between male and female functions, resembling the traditional setting of the patriarchal family . It is hoped that this work will contribute to further studies , since there is a dearth of research focused on the theme of the Military Family .
