k....slow down. how long after boot before school? maybe a month, maybe enough time to fly there. How long will he attend school? that all depends on what job he enlisted for. He may not know how long until a little while after he gets there. Are you sure he is going on a sub? there are alot of other places for navy. If he is active, it won't be long. Then again, he may just go to a base and hang out there for a while. How often will he be able to contact you? once again it depends. it could be daily it could be once a month. Another thing you won't know until it happens. It also depends on what the sub is doing. One thing you will learn being in a relationship with someone in the military (at least lower ranks) is that you don't count on the future being what you planned. It will be what the military plans and it could (not usually) change in a matter of hours. If you have anymore questions, email me. I also have some contact info you could use to learn more about what he is going through and how to cope with what you go through.
