If my partner and myself are both serving in different forces, will we never see eachother?

Hi, there are lots of dual serving couples in the military - accross the 3 services. It can be hard but there are lots of people that make it work. The Army have a serving couples network which gives support and advice to dual serving couples. Good luck.
