Why do girls love marines?

don't get me wrong, marines are awesome but I have seen some of my friends who never got with girls before come back from the marines and get the girl of their dreams. it seems stupid since the girls are never gonna see the guys for 4 years but they still wanna be with them to say that they are dating a marine... I guess they think it would be romantic but idk...
