Married couples living together isn't necessarily fraternization. That term is generally applied to situations arising from certain social relationships between officers (including warrant officers) and enlisted people. That can include personal relationships as well as business relationships or even gambling with different ranks (no NCAA bracket pools).
But on a larger scale, I don't agree with this policy at all. The article says there are around 10,000 married couples in the Army. So these people can share a bunk while downrange and the 100,000+ other soldiers, of which probably at least half are married, have to spend 15 months away from their spouses and families? I just don't see the fairness of that at all. Retention is hurting somewhat, but sheesh! It just seems like a sell-out.
