DH has mentioned being a civilian contractor but I don't think he is seriously considering it. I don't know what would be worse, having them gone the year or having to constantly be sending them over like you are. Either way it isn't fun Sorry he has to leave right after your anniversary and right before the holidays. Are you freezing any sperm so you can still try on the cycles while he is away? We froze some so I could try this year and I still like having them so if DH has a problem day of or if he can't get away from work there is a backup.
It was the same for us when DH brother was in Afghanistan. We always had a general idea when he was coming home like a 2 week time frame, and then when it was right before he would call tell us where he was going on his way home, not sure if it is the same for US troops but they send ours to a destination for a few days before sending them all the way home. His brother was there during some of the hardest heaviest fighting a few years back and we would just pray that the phone wouldn't ring and be a 613 or a 000 area code!!!
