He will have a lot of new people to talk to, work with, go through training with, etc... Many times, relationships like this can and do work out... i.e. overcoming the stress of a lack of contact, infrequent communication (phone calls, IMs, emails, hand-written letters, presents, etc...) and of course the distance.
Depending on the depth of committment both of you have to each other, how comprehensively and completely you talk about anything and everything, how supportive YOU are of him doing what he needs to, how honest, and trusting you are, how self-confident you are (and hopefully how clingy/needy you aren't!).... things can work out.
Long distance relationships are challenging, at best. Research the topic on your own here online.
Think carefully and talk with him DEEPLY before he departs. Is there a reasonible and honest expectation, the two of you will feel MORE interested in each other by the time he returns? There is a LOT for you both to talk about.

You'll miss him loads. You may feel tearful. He can still come over on visits can't he and vice versa? It may be hard but you can still keep in touch with each other thanks to modern technology.

Two years is a long time but can go by in a blink of an eye and a lot of things can happen quite quickly. Sometimes a lot can change as well. Time can also change within couples and individually. I can only wish you both the best and if he works in the army, I hope that all things goes well for him and that he stays safe and well too.
