Realize that this is the first step in time apart because it will get worse. You need to stay busy, go through your stuff and get rid of it, stock up on things you like, go through your photos and make albums, make sure you have copies of your birth certificates and marriage certificates, get a passport if you don't have one, volunteer for things in the area, get a job.
 
Write to him every day. This will do you both some good.

Network with his family. These are relationships that can last a lifetime. Visit his mother. Build friendships with his sisters. These are people who will be sharing your pain and situation.

Make videos to show him what happened while he was away. DO NOT send them to him in boot camp. Just save them and he can watch them when he gets home. Not talking dirty here, just day to day stuff.

Do not try to put him out of your mind and think of other things. If you do, the feelings you have for him may wither.

Be on guard and keep your marriage safe. No one wants to think about this, but you will be lonely. There are men who would take advantage of that. Keep relationships with males to a minimum. Don't say it can't happen. That's when it gets you.
