The girlfried issue:

Speaking as someone who has a long distance relationship with a military musician, it isn't impossible to achieve.

Ed and I have been together over 2 years (and actually we've never lived in the same place, so it's always been long distance.)

As long as you're willing to spend a large chunk of your cash on phone bills and train tickets/petrol, and make the effort to set aside time to talk to each other, you'll be fine.

I won't lie, it can be bloody difficult when you've had a long day and your other half can't give you a hug because they're miles away, and sometimes it can be a few weeks before you can arrange time in your schedules to see each other, but when you do see each other, the time apart makes your time together much more special and gives you a real high.

Would she be willing to move to be with you?

I've seen relationships and marriages fail because someone has got posted and their significant other didn't want to move with them.

She has to understand that if she stays with you, you will travel, work long or odd hours on occasion, and can be moved around the country with little notice.

If your relationship is strong enough, you'll survive. If it isn't, move on to someone who knows what is required.
