Summary/Abstract: The article examines the relationship between the family and military organisation. In the first section, the authors define the relationship between military organisation and the family based on theory of the military as a greedy institution and the theory of social support. In the second section, the authors focus on the case of the Slovenian Armed Forces (SAF). The analysis is based on data acquired through several studies by the Defence Research Centre focusing on the relationship between military organisation and the demands of the primary social environment. In the research, the primary social environment is represented by the members' partners, parents and friends. Their attitudes to work at the SAF and to deployments abroad influence not only the members' levels of satisfaction, but also their devotion and quality of work.
