It depends on who performed the ceremony and whether or not it was done under military law/custom.

United States Naval ships are considered US territory, just as a US Embassy is considered US soil in a foreign nation. Therefore, a marriage ceremony, conducted legally on a commissioned Naval ship by proper authority, is valid and binding.

Note the term "commissioned" Naval ship. Ceremonial ships don't count. The ceremony must have been performed by a Chaplain or the Commanding Officer also - only those personnel are authorized to perform a marriage ceremony on board a ship.

Can a navy seal bring his unmarried spouse?

If he is unmarried, he doesn't have a spouse. By definition, a spouse is the person you are married to. No marriage, no entitlement to move or to benefits. Deployment orders may allow for dependents to be moved with the sailor. That is going to be based on the location and rank.


What happens if you enlisted in the navy and get your girlfriend pregnant a few months before boot camp?

Since you're not married, nothing - the military isn't interested in girlfriends, boyfriends, their kids, or anything other than legal dependents for benefits and contract purposes. In other words, the Navy doesn't care if sailors have a girl in every port, or even if each one has one or more kids, but they're only going to give you benefits for any that you're legally responsible for via some type of valid marriage. If you do get married, it will alter the circumstances of your enlistment contract, and any new dependents will have to be noted and documented before you actually become active duty, so if you do become legally married, make sure you let your recruiter know about it.
