1. The military is like the third-wheel in a relationship.
And boy is it needy.

2. So, they learn to go with the flow.
The only constant is change.
3. Life in the military is always an adventure.
4. Moving is part of your routine …
5. … but when it’s time to deploy, you tackle it together.
It’s go time, baby!
6. You write and Skype each other like you’re freakin’ teenagers.
7. You have deeper relationships because deployments give you a chance to discover who you really are.
8. … which makes both of you strong.

9. And, of course, homecomings are the best.
