I am going to join the army soon. My girlfriend is studying abroad. Can we use WeChat or make a phone call?

According to the relevant regulations of the China Army, soldiers are not allowed to use mobile phones without authorization during their service, and they are not allowed to bring mobile phones into combat areas. So you may not be able to use WeChat or call your girlfriend during military service.

However, you can keep in touch with your girlfriend in other ways, such as writing letters, e-mails, internal communication in military regions and so on. These methods may take some time and patience, but they can help you keep in touch with your girlfriend.

In addition, if your girlfriend uses international roaming service abroad, you can contact her by landline or internal communication in the military region. However, what you need to pay attention to is that the military is strict in the management of communications, and it is necessary to abide by relevant regulations and not to disclose military secrets.

In a word, although you may not be able to contact your girlfriend by mobile phone during military service, you can keep in touch with her in other ways. I hope you and your girlfriend can maintain good communication and trust.
