Tigard native Branden McClintock doesn’t get to see his wife Krystal much these days.

As a sergeant in the U.S. Marine Corps serving in Afghanistan, that’s not too surprising.

What is surprising is that his wife is right there beside him.

McClintock is married to fellow avionics technician Sgt. Krystal Palace-McClintock from Kansas City, Mo. The couple met while serving in the Marine Light Attack Helicopter Squadron 267 and are currently serving their second tour together as helicopter technicians.

The McClintocks are one of three married couples currently deployed with the Camp Pendleton, Calif.,-based helicopter squadron in Helmand Province in Afghanistan.
