Soldiers have one of the most dangerous jobs in the world. They need to be physically and mentally prepared for anything anywhere, and their training is really exhausting. Also, being away from your loved ones just might be the toughest thing ever – not only for soldiers, but for their family and friends as well.

I couldn’t control my tears!
