To be fair , Sarge, I'm not on Deployment right now, I just got back.

I'll be going next Summer.

There are Soldiers who face FAR MORE than me on a day-to-day basis. I just had some rough times for a short while "over there".

I just would like a good night's sleep, once in a while...

Hey, I know how it is. In the AF, we have 2 bad sayings.
1. I got orders to Korea
2. I have to go to the desert.

The desert now is a changing thing. No more Southern nor Northern watch. But, we still rotate in and out usually 90 days.

Korea is a bit different. One year unaccompanied. Live in a dorm and exercise NBC situations all the time.

I enjoy my assignment. But I feel guilty I am stateside.

I am at a training base so I can't go.
