I don't have any pride to hurt.You're not put on the front lines though?There is no "front line", everyone deploys. Everyone does their part to keep the machine moving. Services will be at the same deployed location right next security forces. They will get mortared at night just as the security forces will. Vehicle Operator's run caravans and don't shoot at people. They're escorts might. But an IED doesn't care if you're armed or not. You think only armed men and women were eating in the tent that could bombed out because of an informant? No, many different personnel, many without combat roles ate in that tent. I have a technical job, and I will deploy. It doesn't matter. Everyone deploy, especially guard.I understand that, but the most typical view of soldier is the guy in the tank or the helicopter.

Rumor a few months back was that we were slated for something in two years, but that's been confirmed false and the potential slot shifted to an ASB from another state. The way things look, I'll be out before the unit mobs for anywhere.

The way things look, I'll be out before the unit mobs for anywhere.I shouldn't have asked for specifics. I apologize. My friend's units deploys like clockwork, but that's just their mission. I don't understand the Guard very well at all.
The delusions would be your own. We helped create the fundamentalists and target us. That's exactly why we should only fight defensive wars and that's exactly why they are the only ones that are justified.
But our meddling only created additional enemies, not to mention we helped arm them. If we never became involved they'd just be killing themselves. They wouldn't be a threat to us. We are the reason they want us dead now.
So much edge in here

When someone says they serve in America's, or your country's, armed forces what does that mean to you? When you see a woman or man in ABUs, ACUs, BDUs, or Service Dress, what do you think immediately? What stereotypes do you have about a person when someone say's they serve in the Army, in the Marines, in the Coast Guard, in the Air Force, or the Navy? When someone's uses any quote involving patriotism or they say they'll die for your incorrect opinion, what do you think.The military. Discuss.
What does being in the military mean to you?
