best thing to do is to disconnect the battery since you will have nobody starting the car. Then store the battery in some sort of cool dry area off the ground to prevent discharge. Now depending on the age of the battery all you should need is a quick charge or jump.
As for the battery tender I am guessing that is some sort of solar powered charger? We use to use these solar powered trickle chargers in the military but have gotten away from them in recent years. I personally thought they were junk.
hope this helps

the battery tenders have gotten a lot more high tech/computerized than what were used to back in the day...
i would suggest getting one if your getting deployed mainly to save the battery.
