I remember it all well...My orders read "90 days temporary duty, to take part in an organizational training movement"
See, in my case it wasn't even a "police action" just a training movement, I told the pregnant wife, no way am I going to be back in 90 days...We had to pay her rail fare home out of our own pockets, and I was only a Sgt at the time....
Never did get repaid for that till I got discharged and years later got a letter from The General Accounting Office wanting it back....

.....Westy.....

I'm guessing that by then you had peeked behind the curtain, and either tossed the letter, or told the GAO to pound sand.

When will people realize that governments are NOT their friend?
