Valentine's Day is a special occasion to celebrate love — and for military spouses, it becomes an opportunity to express affection despite the distances imposed by service. 

While not everyone expresses love through gift-giving, everyone can value shared experiences, particularly in the context of military life where physical presence may be challenging. 

Here are gift ideas for your military spouse:
