When I wrote Singled Out, I was just beginning to learn about singles in the military. Since then, I have learned more about the topic, and now, most recently, about singles in the Foreign Service, thanks mostly to people who have written guest posts. There has also been some research about how singles fare in their post-military days.

For this article, I have collected links to what I and some guest bloggers have written about singles in the military and the Foreign Service, in three sections.
