Expert Answer

You should be prepared to maintain a long-distance relationship during the time of their deployment, but if you both are supportive and loving towards each other, you will make it work. You also need to understand and accept their specific mindset, based on obedience and comradery, and very strong bonds with their team. Returning to civilian life may be difficult for them, too. If they go to combat, look out for signs of PTSD. It is important to catch PTSD early and make sure they get appropriate treatment.
