Hi, there are lots of dual serving couples in the army. It's a really tricky question to answer as it depends on your jobs roles (not just capbadges), your desk officers etc. If you are in a longterm relationship (and this is recorded on JPA) you can request that your postings together are considered but unfortunately whether you are married or not it sometimes is luck of the draw. As someone who's also in a dual serving relationship you just get used to long weekend drives and making your time count together! It's tough for all of us but can make relationships stronger and at least with dual serving you both speak the same crazy army speak! ;) I wish you so much luck.
