This military stuff sucks

Ok it's not bad, but it is lonely. My whole friend group/everyone I hung out with has left this past winter and the circle of people I talk to daily/weekly aren't the types I would hang out with. I feel as if I'm in the position where I should ride out the last year solo because I get out and move in a year and there's realistically an 8 month window for me to try and make a solid friendship. This is my second base and the second time I've felt this way, I'm not a fan of it. Is this normal? Do you guys feel this way as well?
