Empowering, Connecting +supporting milsos

Welcome to Wives of the Armed Forces! A community

Welcome to Wives of the Armed Forces! A community of empowered women who are determined to be the change in the milso world.

WAF was inspired out of the idea that there is a lot of negativity surrounding this lifestyle online and while we experience a lot of trials and tribulations, if we allow ourselves, we also can have the BEST TIME with some incredible people in some of the most unlikely of places🥹

Hang with us here + don’t miss our blog where we platform the stories of milsos sharing their lessons learned and hot tips to thrive in this life!

*PINCH ME*

I didn't fully know what I was signing up for when I said yes to marrying my husband (I was marrying him, not the military after all 😉). The seasons of long distance, the waiting + worrying, the see ya laters that never get easier, definitely not the way this life constantly shifts beneath your feet.

It's easy to feel unprepared, sometimes even lost!

BUT...if you stay open, to the change, the challenge, the growth (!!!) this life can bring you things you never saw coming.

Strength you didn't know you had. Connection that stretches time zones. Unshakable gratitude for the simple things. And, who knows, maybe a once in a lifetime opportunity to be apart of something historic like the White House Easter Egg Roll 🫶🏼

We met during a season of uncertainty. New state.

We met during a season of uncertainty.

New state. New base. New faces. The difficult ache of starting over. Just two women figuring out this new military life.

Military friendships happen fast, but goodness do they run deep.

When your world is constantly changing, you cling to the ones who understand it without words.

Even when orders pull us to different corners of the world, we pick up right where we left off—whether it’s on @marcopoloapp , a visit that finally comes to fruition after months of planning, or disjointed texts just letting each other know we’re thinking of one another.

To the milso who’s still searching for that kind of connection—don’t give up🫶🏼We shared 6 ways to build those deep, lasting friendships at your next assignment on the blog.

Comment "besties" and we'll send it to you or you can search "friend" on wivesofthearmedforces.com to read it!
