Addison and Mariah's engagement

Addison and Mariah Love have spent the majority of their married life apart from each other. Just 14 days after their wedding on November 23, 2019, Mariah was deployed to Qatar for one year, and Addison was deployed to locations throughout Europe.

Both Addison and Mariah are graduates of Cedarville University in Ohio. They both served in the university's ROTC program, and after their college graduation and being commissioned in 2019, they went to officer training courses in separate locations. Mariah went to a base in Oklahoma; Addison trained in Missouri.

Just 14 days after their wedding, they were deployed. Mariah returned to the United States in December 2020 and is stationed at Fort Bliss in Texas. Addison returns from Germany on Monday, March 8 with the 1-101 AVN REGT. He is expected to arrive at Fort Campbell in Kentucky. His wife, Mariah, and Addison's family from the Dayton, Ohio area will be in attendance and give him a hero’s welcome.  This will be the first time in 15 months that Addison and Mariah will be together. 

Addison will be relocated to Fort Bliss, where his wife, Mariah, is stationed.
