What is it like being a Judge Advocate?

My husband is currently enlisted in the Marine Corp. He will be getting out in July and will almost have his BA in Criminalistics. He plans on using his G.I. bill to go on to law school. However, He has considered the possibility of becoming a JAG in the Marine Corp or another branch of the military. I am wondering, will he be deployed, be required to work weekends (we are seventh day sabbath keepers) and is there a good chance of him becoming a JAG's in the military?

I doubt he'll have to work weekends, except for researching or paperwork done at home. They usually keep banker's hours. Although he might need to be on call for arrests, bonds, things of that nature.
