So is there any inclination that you might be deployed overseas at some point?

That would suck.

We're scheduled to start mobilization to deploy to Iraq in November of next year.

True. With hubby, we didn't actually "know" know until like maybe a couple months before he was shipped off to OK for his training. They spent a few months there, and then a year in Iraq.

Of course that was only like a year into the war.


I'm hoping things'll change for you. Smilie

Yeah, it may get switched to Afghanistan. I believe Obama said that he'd have all troops out of Iraq by December 2011... Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)

Yeah, I remember hearing that. From a soldier's perspective though, I don't think there's a whole lot of difference between the two. laugh out loud

I do.

In Afghanistan, a lot of engagements are occurring at beyond 500m out. 500m is the maximum effective range for a point target; that's about as far as you can actually hit something at a specific point with the weapon. That's just one of the more serious issues. To be honest, I'd prefer Iraq over Afghanistan.
