    And God love the Marines for that! If not, the Army's standard deployment these days would be 15-18 months, and the USAF would have come face to face with the daunting 7 month deployment. :D

    Army active duty from 2002-2007 with the 10th Mountain Division. Did one deployment to Afghanistan and two deployments to Iraq. I got stop lossed for my last deployment. After that deployment I got out for almost 2 years and missed the hell out of it. So, I opted for the best of both worlds and joined the NY Army National Guard. It's a huge culture shock coming from active duty but I like it. Looks like I will be going for my fourth deployment soon.

    A 7 month Chairforce *ahem* Airforce deployment is equivalent to you Army's 18 month deployment. :D

    None right now. After deployment I will!
    I've been at USAG Humphreys South Korea for a month now and I love it so far. minus the cross training because it's too cold to do my MOS here. Ever try purifying water with a frozen river? Hopefully I get to go home in October for a couple weeks then back to the grind. Hooah!
