Congrats to him on the interviews!
My piece advice is to stay put and don't follow him! You never know when a base is going to close. He's the one with travel bennies so he can come see you. We made things work by staying in communication with each other through text, IM, phone, email, etc. I am also pretty independent so I picked up hobbies and did my own thing. He came to visit as much as he could. If your relationship can withstand being apart for the short term than it will be strong in the end.

Nick and I dated about a year when he started getting based on other states. We were living in Scottsdale and I stayed put. My job was good and I loved AZ. The only reason I moved now (4.5 years into our relationship) is because we know we are heading towards marriage, my company is based here, and his base won't be closing.
Good luck!
