I spoke to my husbands recruiter for the military and he just said as if it was no big deal "he will be gone for 20 weeks" with hardly any communication except for letters and the occasional 10 min phone call 😞 I'm being strong for my husband, but I'm dreading the day. I can only imagine what deployments will be like. And before anyone says "get hobbies, or get a life of your own" I do have one, I'm raising our kids and going to school to get my bachelors, I just hate being apart from him, because we've never been apart since we've been married 😢😪
